Description

You will find plenty of references to this wine on the internet but please find a selection of comments.

Haut-Bailly is one of Bordeaux’ best wines, even if it keeps a somewhat lower profile than some of its more famous peers. Indeed, from 1870–1914 Haut-Bailly achieved the same price as the first growths

A beauty, this deep ruby-colored wine offers a classic, smoky, cherry, red and black currant-scented nose, sweet, lush, forward fruit, medium body, true delicacy and elegance (as opposed to thinness and dilution), perfect balance, and a lovely, long, supple, velvety-textured finish. This is a ballerina of a claret, with beautiful aromatics, lovely flavors, and impeccable equilibrium. Anticipated maturity: 2000-2018.

(Chateau Haut-Bailly Pessac-Léognan) A really impressive colour, as although when decanting I noticed some mature tones in the gently cascading wine, in the decanter and glass it displays a very dark hue, deep oxblood but with an almost black core. The nose is just beautiful; dark, pure, well-defined fruit to the fore, like plum skin or black cherry, firm rather than sweet or soft, with nuances of violet perfume, tea leaves, green peppercorn, leather and tobacco. On the palate its character matches its appearance, with a big and substantial midpalate, rather bold at first, with a broad, mouth-filling shell, within which there is still some peppery alcohol and fat, glycerol-tinged texture, although this soon integrates with a little air. This is a wine only just coming into its true drinking window I suspect, and is still displaying a slightly disjointed, youthful character here. But it is still a lovely wine to experience now, and it is just stuffed with potential for further cellaring, as evinced by the rounded, tannic grip showing at the end, the balanced acid backbone, and the length, which is very good.

Château Haut-Bailly 1995 Graves Cru Classé, Pessac-Léognan, Bordeaux
Sweetly fruited and elegant, with lovely broad textured cherry and berry fruit. Quite dense and structured with notes of earth, tar and spice emerging from under the fruit. Grippy structure and a drying finish. 93/100

On a personal note I have now tried the wine, and it's lovely and an absolute treat, I really doubt you'll be disappointed.
