Heiner Lobenberg über:
Chateau La Mission Haut Brion Cru Classe 2005

100
/100

Lobenberg: Einfach nur schwarz und undurchsichtig. Eine super erotische, exotische drückende Fruchtnase. Schwarze Frucht. Brombeere, aber auch schwarze Johannisbeere, Cassis. Ätherisch. Die Intensität des Duftes läßt einen schwindeln. Die Nase erinnert ungemein an den großen 89er, vielleicht ein bißchen harmonischer. Im Mund sind die ungeheuren Tanninmassen, die superpoliert und fein sind, spürbar. Der Alkohol ist dafür kaum spürbar, man ahnt ihn. Sehr schöne Rassigkeit, gute Länge. Die Cabernet kommt deutlich zum Vorschein, trotz des überwiegenden Eindrucks von schwarzen Früchten. Hier wieder ein Touch Exotik. Sehr voluminöser, dichter und fast dicker Wein. Sehr balanciert. Die Exotik und Rasse macht ihn wunderschön. 100/100

Parker über: Chateau La Mission Haut Brion Cru Classe

-- Parker: The 2005 La Mission Haut-Brion is pure perfection. It has an absolutely extraordinary nose of sweet blackberries, cassis and spring flowers with some underlying minerality, a full-bodied mouthfeel, gorgeously velvety tannins (which is unusual in this vintage) and a long, textured, multi-layered finish that must last 50+ seconds. This is a fabulous wine and a great effort from this hallowed terroir. Drink this modern-day legend over the next 30+ years. Only 5,500 cases were produced of this blend of 69% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Cabernet Franc. 100/100

Galloni über: Chateau La Mission Haut Brion Cru Classe

-- Galloni: The 2005 La Mission Haut-Brion is unquestionably one of the wines of the vintage. Effusive aromatics and bright, red-toned fruit make a strong first impression. A wine of vertical intensity and explosive energy, the 2005 is a towering masterpiece. Today it is just at the beginning of a long drinking window that will last another few decades. Red cherry, plum, leather, spice, gravel, smoke, blood orange and pomegranate infuse the palate staining finish. In 2005, La Mission is a wine that satisfies all the senses, from the intellectual to the hedonistic. Magnificent. Tasted two times. 100/100

Jeb Dunnuck über: Chateau La Mission Haut Brion Cru Classe

-- Jeb Dunnuck: Utterly seamless and as insanely good as it gets, the 2005 Château La Mission Haut-Brion checks in as 69% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, and the rest Cabernet Franc raised in a mix of new and used barrels. Its deep ruby/plum hue is followed by an incredible perfume of blackcurrants, smoked tobacco, chocolate, leafy herbs, and graphite that’s to die for. Rich, full-bodied, and concentrated on the palate, with tons of structure, it nevertheless glides across the palate with no sensation of weight or heaviness and has incredible length on the finish. This is a quintessential, opulent, sexy La Mission that isn’t far off the style of the 2009. It needs air to show at its best today but is unquestionably in the early stages of its prime drinking window. It will evolve for another 30-40+ years in cold cellars. 100/100

The Wine Palate über: Chateau La Mission Haut Brion Cru Classe

-- The Wine Palate: Opulent, Bold, Black Fruit, Earthy, Crushed/Wet Rocks, Cassis, Medium to Full bodied, Moderate Acidity, Subtle Oak, Velvety Texture, High Tannin, Ready to Drink. The 2005 La Mission Haut-Brion is a blend of 69% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 1% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-brick in color, it slowly grows on the nose to offer earthy suggestions of damp soil, wild mushrooms, and crushed rocks, over a flamboyant core of warm cassis and fruitcake, plus a hint of Sichuan pepper. Medium to full-bodied, with an electric backbone of energy and firm, ripe tannins supporting the generous fruit, it finishes with incredibly persistent earth and mineral layers. This evocative beauty is just entering its drinking window, yet has the stamina and stuffing to give a further 30 years+ of pleasure.
