2005 Ch Haut Bailly, Pessac Léognan

Tasting Notes

""Beautiful raspberry, black cherry, currant, graphite, and scorched earth notes are subtle, but provocative. In the mouth, there is good acidity, medium body, ripe tannin, and terrific length." Robert Parker: 95"

Vineyard Information

For the past four centuries, Château Haut Bailly has overlooked 28 hectares of vines in a single block. These grow on soil consisting of sand and gravel from the Tertiary period with a fossil stone subsoil. Haut Bailly's reputation as one of the very finest wines of Bordeaux was established in the 19th century. Robert G.Wilmers, the owner since 1998, continues to emphasise quality in all aspects of production, combining a blend of tradition and modernity with respect for the environment. ©ugcb
