Château La Mission Haut-Brion 2014 Pessac-Léognan

CHATEAU LA MISSION HAUT-BRION 2014

モカの余韻に、力強さと優雅さを。

力強さと優雅さが調和した2014年です。深みのある色合いと複雑な香りが印象的で、開栓直後から熟した黒果実のアロマが広がり、ブラックベリーやプラムにスパイスや微かな煙のニュアンスが重なります。口に含むと柔らかなタンニンとともに豊かな果実味が広がり、バランスのとれた酸が心地よい余韻を残します。モカやチョコレートを思わせる深い風味も。ローストビーフや鴨のコンフィ、トリュフ入りのパスタとともに。

Tasting note

The deep color and complex aroma are impressive. Immediately after opening, the aroma of ripe black fruits spreads, along with blackberries and plums, as well as nuances of spices and a subtle hint of smoke. When you put it in your mouth, the rich fruit flavor spreads along with the soft tannins, and the balanced acidity leaves a pleasant lingering aftertaste. This wine is both elegant and powerful, with deep flavors reminiscent of mocha and chocolate. Further aging is expected to add further complexity, making this wine suitable for long-term storage.

Pasta with roast beef, duck confit and truffles
