Haut Bailly OWC-6 Pessac Leognan – 2016

Please note; this wine is only available to order by the case

“The 2016 Haut-Bailly is medium to deep garnet-purple in color. The nose opens with beautiful floral notes of violets and lavender accented with earthy notions and sparks of crushed rocks over a core of kirsch, cassis and wild blueberries. Full-bodied, rich and seductive, it has layer upon layer of red, black and blue fruits intermingled with earth and mineral hints leading to a very long, perfumed finish.” 98/100 Wine Advocate

“The best Haut Bailly of the modern era? For certain.” 97/100 Neal Martin, Dec 2018

Chateau Haut Bailly is a Bordeaux gem! They have THE most amazing, state of the art new winery which has been built into the hill outside the old chateau so that you barely know there is a winery there. They have possibly the oldest vines in Bordeaux – 20% of the blend for their grand vin each year comes from a plot of vines directly outside the chateau which are over 100 years old. And the chateau is managed by one of the most impressive personalities in Bordeaux – Veronique Sanders – who has achieved so much during her tenure over the past 30 or so years.

If you like your Bordeaux with elegance, finesse and true soul, then Haut Bailly will never disappoint!
