VINUM: "Feinduftig, rotfruchtig, rauchig, mineralisch, Sauerkirschen, Cassis, Walderdbeeren, Rosenblüten; der Gaumen ist gradlinig, gewohnt elegant, feinkörnige Tannine, zupackende Säure, delikate, reife, rote Beerenfrucht, auch der Gand Vin mit burgundischem Ausdruck und im Abgang von sehr guter Länge und mit fast schon einer spicy Würzigkeit. Ein Haut-Bailly der früh verführen wird."

THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "Tobacco, currants, forest leaves, barbecue smoke, black raspberries, and cherries create a complex set of aromatics. The wine is elegant, soft, fresh, medium-bodied, and refined. It possesses a delicacy that allows the wine to focus on purity and charm, showcasing vibrancy in the fruits with just a touch of cocoa on the back of the finish, adding length and body. You can enjoy this quite early in life. With just a few years in the cellar, it will be gorgeous to savor for at least two decades with pleasure. The wine blends 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, and 2% Cabernet Franc. 13% ABV. The harvest took place September 18 - October 4. 6% press wine. Drink from 2029-2050."

ANSON: "Savoury, precise and poised, with lovely texture, softly spoken with high floral aromatics, rose petals, peony, fine tannins, drawn out character, long slow build of tension through the palate, unrolling to show white truffle and mint leaf. Tannic grip, estate signature, more softly spoken than in recent vintages, but Haut-Bailly has proved over and over again that it is capable of delivering over the long term, and that it delivers excellence even in challenging vintages - an upscore potential in bottle. Harvest 18 September to 4 October, 30hl/h yield. Gabriel Vialard technical director."
