Created in the 16th century, the Château La Mission estate was first owned by the Rostaing and Lestonnac families. From the end of the 18th century to the beginning of the 20th century, 5 different owners ran the château. The Chiapella family is one of them. As a major shipowner, it will make this vintage known in America.

The Woltner family, for its part, will own La Mission from 1919. It will leave a legacy of a new type of vat allowing better control of fermentation. In 1983, the Dillon family, owners of the adjoining Château Haut-Brion, acquired the vineyard. Prince Robert of Luxembourg, grandson of Douglas Dillon, became President of the estate in 2008. The management of the vineyard is, even today, ensured by Jean-Philippe Delmas.


Tasting Notes :
Conditions were a little challenging for the Sémillon this year, and the blend of the La Mission Haut-Brion 2016 Blanc is, unusually, dominated by Sauvignon Blanc (62.7%) with 37.3% Sémillon. It reveals subtle notions of mandarin peel, fresh grapefruit and pineapple with touches of crushed rocks, white peaches and coriander seed. Medium-bodied, the palate has a racy line of freshness cutting through the vibrant citrus and tropical layers, finishing on a lingering mineral note. Considering the challenges, this is a very impressive result!
