Price $180

Smooth and opulent, this immediately appeals with its generous fruit and texture that feels like velvet. The structure sits under the seductive surface, with a chocolate wood flavor, fruit tannins and density. Age for over 10 years at least. — R.V. (9/1/2012)

A powerful and complex wine from an estate performing on its top form. Solid tannins, layers of wood and dark fruits combine to give a wine that offers both richness and a dense structure. This Haut-Bailly should age impressively and for many years. — R.V. (5/1/2013)

Château Haut-Bailly 2010 Barrel sample Red (Pessac-Léognan)

Online Exclusive

93-95 Very concentrated wine, although its tannins are well integrated into the fresh berry fruits and bright acidity. That gives the wine a style that brings out a more open character. Very promising future. — R.V. (6/25/2011)

Château Haut-Bailly 2012 Barrel sample Red (Pessac-Léognan)

Online Exclusive

93–95. Barrel sample. Dark in structure, with a sense of austerity and dark tannins, this is a wine that will need time to develop. There’s a hint of tobacco and ripe plum on the palate, and the aftertaste promises juiciness. — R.V. (4/10/2013)

points

Château Haut-Bailly 2004 Red (Pessac-Léognan)

Cellar Selection

A beautifully balanced, harmonious wine—as so often in recent years from Haut-Bailly—this is the epitome of deliciously drinkable Bordeaux. The wild strawberry flavors and the elegant, velvet texture are balanced by firm, structured tannins. Like other vintages from Haut-Bailly, expect this to develop over many years. — R.V. (6/1/2007)

points

Château Haut-Bailly 2008 Barrel sample Red (Pessac-Léognan)

Online Exclusive

92-94 Barrel sample. This is a dark, firm, strongly tannic but impressive wine, with a dry core of dark fruits. They open slowly to reveal a rich undertow of blackberry jelly fruit flavors. — R.V. (12/31/2009)
