Merchant's description
The final vintage of Laville Haut-Brion Blanc was 2008 and today the wine is sold as the white wine of La Mission Haut-Brion. Original bottlings are therefore very scarce and highly sought-after. 1989 was a particularly good year for Bordeaux, with a hot dry summer leading to an early harvest.
