The ripe, powerful Merlot component has buttressed the Cabernet elements, giving the wine plenty of body, tannin and La Mission's classic asphalt, cassis, blackberry, smoky barbecue, meaty notes intermixed with a hint of hot rocks. Anticipated maturity: 2020-2035?
Score: 95+ Robert Parker, August 2012
50% Merlot, 1% Cabernet Franc, 49% Cabernet Sauvignon. Mid ruby. Occluded nose. Rather a gentle beast. Rich and sweet with the bite of dust tannins on the finish. Very sweet and flattering. Very definitely a smudgy 'cloud' of a wine. Medium weight. Quite delicate. But lovely length . Long.
Score: 17.5 Jancis Robinson MW, March 2011
