2012 La Chapelle de La Mission Haut Brion

A deep purple dry red wine with quite pronounced level aromas of blackcurrant, black cherry, cedar, menthol and touch of clove and warm brick. Medium acidity and alcohol, full bodied with medium fine grained tannin. On palate it gives over medium intensity flavours of black plum, vanilla and warm earth. Longer than medium length with black plum finish. (89) Good nose but rather simple palate.

酒的香氣很好，不論在強度、複雜性、層次及風格也是。酒在口中表現減了分，酒力及餘韻仍是合格有餘的，口感亦算柔順，是一支很不錯的餐酒。這酒莊的正牌酒質素很高，但以這支副牌來說只是一支中規中矩的。
