Its near-neighbor and sister estate Château Haut-Brion was the only estate from the region featured in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification, but La Mission Haut-Brion (rated a Graves Grand Cru in the 1959 rankings) is often judged and priced as the equal of Haut-Brion and the other first growths. The wine is particularly known for its fruit intensity, rounded, generous texture and silky tannins, and has received multiple 100-point ratings from American critic Robert Parker. La Mission Haut-Brion sees 18-22 months aging in barrel, with 80 percent new oak. Between 6000 and 7000 cases are produced each year. La Chapelle de La Mission Haut-Brion has been the second wine since 2006, when it replaced Château La Tour Haut-Brion. The estate also produces two Semillon-based white wines: La Mission Haut-Brion Blanc (formerly Laville Haut-Brion) and, since 2009, La Clarté de Haut-Brion. The latter acts as a combined second wine for La Mission Haut-Brion and Haut-Brion Blanc. The estate takes its name from the Lazarite missionaries who owned it from 1682 until the French Revolution. It has been owned since 1983 by Domaine Clarence Dillon, the owner of Haut-Brion.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-02-08T13:07:11-05:00","created_at":"2023-02-01T06:17:21-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","LK0102","other_french wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Chateau La Mission Haut Brion","Region_Bordeaux","Source_Hedonism0123","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Bordeaux Blend Red"],"price":759899,"price_min":759899,"price_max":759899,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42756661379210,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2018 | Chateau la Mission Haut Brion 6L","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":759899,"weight":97976,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/25_e8216613-3b07-4017-b291-a7ece00194b4.jpg?v=1675250292"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/25_e8216613-3b07-4017-b291-a7ece00194b4.jpg?v=1675250292","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2018 | Chateau la Mission Haut Brion 6L at CaskCartel.com","id":24129194623114,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.6,"height":1000,"width":600,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/25_e8216613-3b07-4017-b291-a7ece00194b4.jpg?v=1675250292"},"aspect_ratio":0.6,"height":1000,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/25_e8216613-3b07-4017-b291-a7ece00194b4.jpg?v=1675250292","width":600}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2018 | Chateau la Mission Haut Brion 6L\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2018 offers up a deep and concentrated nose, suggestive of very ripe grapes, underscored by complex oaky and spicy overtones.
