Château Haut-Bailly has a distinct style that is a good combination of classic with modern and of elegance, finesse and softness with structure. The smoothness of the tannins provides elegant and complex aromas. Château Haut-Bailly can be kept for many years to come, but it is already a delicious wine to drink. This Château Haut-Bailly has received high praise from wine experts who agree that this Château Haut-Bailly offers complex pleasure and a richness that is neither aggressive nor showy. All these beautiful attributes that this wine has at its disposal are mainly due to the selection process of the grapes and the landscape and climate in which the grapes grow.
Soil research experts have found that Haut Bailly has one of the finest terroirs in the Pessac-Léognan. Great wines are created by the interplay between soil, location, climate and people. The wines have always been good, but in recent years they have increased in quality even more. Haut-Bailly is known for its softness and silky texture. The wine has incredible potential of refined tannins and softly sweet, complex fruit nuances.
The 2019 Haut-Bailly settles in the glass with complex aromas of dark berries, laurel, loamy soil and cigars framed by a modest new oak. Full-bodied, velvety and elegantly muscled, powerful and concentrated, with lively acidity and an abundance of ripe yet youthful tannins. A wine that needs a few more years to drink, but in the end it can also be kept in the cellar until 2070.
