旗下26公頃的葡萄園紅白品種都有種植,都是依照土壤的特性選擇適合的品種。紅品種的園區是深厚的礫石覆蓋在黏土和砂質土上,種植比例是Cabernet Sauvignon 45.8%、Merlot 43.8%和Cabernet Franc 10.4 %,高比例的Merlot讓它的紅酒風格豐盈又有甜美的果味,因而人氣高漲不下。
有3.5公頃的園區種植白品種,分別是Semillon 61.7%和Sauvignon Blanc 38.3%,在全新法國橡木桶發酵,然後在全新法國橡木桶熟成13-16個月;以前這款白酒的名稱是Laville-Haut-Brion blanc,自2009年份開始才改名為La Mission Haut-Brion blanc。一直以來,這款白酒被譽為最好的波爾多不甜白酒之一,唯一會比它更好的應該只有Haut-Brion白酒了!

Tasted blind at the Southwold 2012 tasting, the 2012 La Mission Haut-Brion showed brilliantly. It has an intense, floral bouquet with rose petals and strawberry preserve, hints of sous-bois and tobacco gently unfolding in the glass, gaining more earthiness as it aerates in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, broad and spicy with hints of bell pepper suggesting high quality Cabernet Franc. It fans out gloriously with a sustained tertiary finish that completes what is a wondrous La Mission Haut-Brion from Jean-Philippe Delmas and his team. Tasted January 2012.
