Some recent Cellartracker notes:-
10/13/2016 - PAUL D WROTE:
Haut Bailly Dinner (Medlar, Chelsea): Pale/medium garnet/mahogany. Attractive, developed Graves nose, red fruit, tobacco, baked earth - quite aromatic. Medium bodied on the palate, tobaccoey red fruits, a vestige of fine tannin, lovely tangy acidity carries a very good length finish. This is excellent and I would say at its peak ****1/2.

Haut Bailly (Medlar, London): Bright garnet. Very 78 on the nose with green pepper and a touch of cool menthol. Denser and fuller on the attack than the 70. Bright. Still vibrant and almost a little frisky. ***1/2

Better than previous bottle upon opening. Fruitier and denser, if only slightly. Smoky on the nose. Pencil shavings and dried red fruits. Not a whole lot of complexity, but a nice drink.
2/2/2016 - DRK III LIKES THIS WINE: 90 Points
Upon opening: Very pale, almost completely transparent. Initially, a light nose of barnyard, forest floor, dried red and blue fruits, and herbs. Put in the decanter and drank over the next 2 hours, then transferred the remainder back into the original bottle and preserved with argon gas (about 6 total hours in the decanter before resealing). Much better with more air, even into the next day. The wine became fuller and richer, even longer and more powerful. By the last glass the wine was light to medium bodied, medium+ acid, medium- tannins, long and savoury on the finish. Definitely past prime, but still drinking well if stored properly.

Wow! This particular bottle was just great. Poor crumbly cork, level lowermost neck, colour has distinctly brown character but still looks alive, after one hour in the decanter, nose just superb, relaxed, fine, enveloping and very complex "perfume"; lovely old-style Bordeaux palate, restrained, "aristocratic", not at all flamboyant but with a real depth of fine fruit, perfect balance and persistence. At this age not all bottles will be the same and the wine is relatively "delicate", not robust - but if you get a great bottle this is Haut Bailly at its laid-back, elegant best.
