      The Wine

      La Chapelle is the second wine of Château La Mission Haut-Brion, one of the most storied names in all of Bordeaux, whose Pessac-Léognan vineyards have been producing acclaimed wine for centuries. A second wine gives you the estate’s terroir and winemaking in an earlier-drinking, more accessible form.

      The 2020 is Merlot-dominant (50.1%) with Cabernet Sauvignon (45.5%) and a touch of Cabernet Franc (4.4%), aged in oak barrels. Deep ruby in the glass, it layers ripe blackberry and cherry with cedar, spice and the subtle earthy-smoky accent that marks this corner of Pessac-Léognan, finished with velvety tannins.

      Questions

      What is a second wine?

      A separate bottling from the same estate and team, made from lots not selected for the grand vin — more approachable in youth and in price.

      Can I drink it now?

      Yes, with 45 minutes in a decanter — and the 2020 also has the structure to keep.

      How much is in a half bottle?

      37.5cl — half a standard bottle, roughly two generous glasses.
