The 2015 La Mission Haut-Brion Blanc has a relatively conservative bouquet, yet one that is well dened and focused; subtle gravel notes lter through the citrus fruit, white peach and honeysuckle aromas. The balanced palate features gorgeous dried mango, peach and white pepper notes. The acidity is supremely well judged, and a wonderful spiciness dominates the persistent nish. Compelling. Tasted blind at the Southwold 2015 Bordeaux tasting.
