Description

2009 Château Haut-Bailly, Pessac-Léognan, BordeauxMedium to deep garnet colored, the 2009 Haut Bailly hits the ground running with bold black fruit preserves, Morello cherries, baked blueberries and tilled earth scents with nuances of fried herbs, chargrilled meat and a ferrous waft plus a touch of menthol. Medium to full bodied, the taut palate has a firm, grainy texture with a lively line lifting the core of muscular fruit, finishing long and earthy. 97 100, Lisa Perrotti Brown, Wine Advocate

Very much the epitome of an English gentleman

almost like a Christmas cake

pipe tobacco and lime zest

cream and spices

Made from 85% Tempranillo

old-school style

Racy and intense and energetic

the 2008 is reminiscent of the 1996

The 2013 effort has wonderful floral notes

the Clos des Lambrays is all silk and finesse with pure red and black fruit of wonderful depth and a very long finish

the 2008 wine was by far the finest Ducru we had ever tasted

yet with very good acidity behind
