  "This is very clear and precise with limes, lemons and sliced pineapple. Full body, tangy fruit and a dense, caressing, textured finish. Racy. Needs three to four years to soften."

  The Wine Cellar Insider
  "Crushed stone, grapefruit and citrus lead to a concentrated, full bodied, expressive, fresh, citrus filled wine with volume, length concentration and complexity."

  The Wine Advocate
  "Tasted blind at the Southwold 2012 tasting. The 2012 La Mission Haut-Brion Blanc has a very intense Sauvignon Blanc nose offering gooseberry, kiwi fruit and smoky scents, although it does not seem to possess the complexity of the Malartic-Lagravière Blanc. The palate is balanced with a smooth entry, quite phenolic compared to its peers with a waxy, almost honeyed finish that feels creamy and yet needs to muster more complexity. I suspect this is just entering a dumb phase (just like Laville Haut-Brion had a habit of doing!). Like the Haut-Brion, my mark reflects the fact that this wine has closed down since bottling, but it will warrant a far higher score in line with its barrel showing after 10-15 years. Tasted January 2016."

  Weinwisser
  "Mittleres Gelb, lindengrüne Nuancen darin, leuchtend. Süsses, ausladendes Bouquet, Nektarinen, Pfirsichkern, gekochte Guyot-Birnen. Im Gaumen mit burgundischer Fülle, die Säure scheint weich und schmiegt sich schon im Extrakt ein, der Aromendruck muss sich noch mit der Flaschenreife entwickeln. Ein beruhigender weisser Mission für dazu passende Gerichte. Als Apéro eher ungeeignet, nicht zuletzt auch wegen des Preises."

  Falstaff
  "Helles Gelbgrün, feine frische Kräuterwürze, ein Hauch von Birne und Limette, gelbe Ringlotte. Mittlere Komplexität, kraftvolle Textur, zarte gelbe Tropenfrucht, dezente nussige Aromen im Abgang, würzig und anhaltend, zart grasiger Touch im Nachhall."
