The diversity of grape varieties cultivated allows the full complexity of the terroir to be expressed. Bordeaux's oceanic climate, with its hot summers and mild winters, promotes optimal grape ripening, guaranteeing high-quality harvests. The vines are carefully tended to respect the environment and the unique character of the terroir.

Their commitment to quality and authenticity is reflected in every bottle produced.

Vinification and aging

The winemaking process at La Chapelle de La Mission Haut-Brion follows traditional methods, combining innovation and respect for the environment. The grapes are harvested by hand and carefully sorted to retain only the very best.
