Holy Smoke.  This wine is good juice.  The La Mission Haut Brions are amongst my favorite wines from around the globe.  The aromatics are wonderful if you like Graves wines.  VERY earthy, truffle like, smoked bacon aromas followed by rich black currants, black berries.  On the palate it is a very seductive, lush, voluptuous fully mature wine that has not yet lost any of its allure.  A tremendous effort.  5 stars
