Château La Mission Haut-Brion vineyard straddles the towns of Talence and Taynac. The aging time in oak barrels is 18 to 22 months in 20 to 25% of new wood. It comes from the same vineyards as the Mission Haut Brion.
"You are immediately set at ease by the confidence and sheer easy appeal of this wine. A silky and seductive La Chapelle that rivals plenty of first wines in this vintage. The texture is rich and taut at first, then softens in the glass, with a charge of freshness that keeps the momentum and the energy high. Not many wines that rival the 2010 and 2016s, but here it very much does - exuberant with chocolate and cracked pepper but pulls back at the right moment. Harvests from 7th to 29th September. I love it." 94 pts, Jane Anson, Decanter
"Blackberries, some crushed stones and iodine with a sandalwood undertone. It’s full and racy with firm tannins." 93-94 pts, James Suckling
"Black cherries, currants, tobacco, and leafy herb notes all emerge from the 2020 La Chapelle De La Mission Haut-Brion. and it's medium to full-bodied, with a round, layered mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and just a big, rich, yet concentrated vibe that's very much in the style of the vintage. It's going to have two decades of longevity." 92-94 pts, Jeb Dunnuck
