Created in the 16th century, the Château La Mission estate was first owned by the Rostaing and Lestonnac families. From the end of the 18th to the beginning of the 20th century, 5 different owners managed the château. The Chiapella family was one of them. They were instrumental in introducing this wine to America. The Woltner family owned La Mission from 1919 onwards. Their legacy was a new type of vat for better fermentation control. In 1983, the Dillon family, owners of the adjoining Château Haut-Brion, acquired the vineyard. Prince Robert de Luxembourg, Douglas Dillon's grandson, became Chairman of the estate in 2008. Jean-Philippe Delmas continues to manage the vineyard.
