VINUM: "Rubinrot und mit deutlichen Röstaromen, kühler Kamin, dunkle Frucht; zugänglicher Gaumen, knackige Frucht, man möchte gleich schlucken, feine Gerbstoffe umgarnen die Frucht, angenehm lang, ausbalanciert, mit Blutorangen und etwas Zartbitterschokolade im Finale."

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "A blend of 56.3% Cabernet Sauvignon, 29.2% Merlot and 14.5% Cabernet Franc, the 2024 La Chapelle de la Mission Haut-Brion is fresh and perfumed, offering up aromas of peonies, dark berries and green bell pepper. Moderately weighted and sappy, it's layered and youthfully introverted, underpinned by somewhat brittle tannins and concluding with a fresh, elegant finish."
