La Mission Haut-Brion Blanc 201797 points Robert Parkers Wine Advocate, March 2020 A blend of 23. 8% Sauvignon Blanc and 76. 2% Smillon, the 2017 Blanc takes its time uncoiling from its tightly wound state, slowly revealing nuances of lemon tart, lime blossoms, green mango and jasmine with touches of cedar chest and sea spray. Medium bodied, the palate has a beautifully expressed, quiet intensity, featuring loads of subtle mineral and citrus layers, finishing long and chalky.
