Expert's opinions
For whatever reason, the now-mature 1978, while fruity, quite charming, and soft, never quite had the depth and dimension of the 1979. Now taking on some amberorange color, this wine has a herbaceous, oaky fragrance, soft, loosely knit flavors, and a smooth finish.

Very top of the cork still dry. A medium garnet with a translucent rim in the glass. Almost no browning. Wonderful nose: fresh slightly green notes, sous bois, cigar box. On the palate a quintessential, old school grave, leafy but still with good fruit concentration. Tannins resolved. Great Haut Bailly!

Château informations
Château Haut-Bailly is a Bordeaux wine estate that produces classified growths from Graves in the Pessac Léognan AOC.
Haut Bailly is one of the rare Graves estates that produces only red wine.
In 1998, the Sanders family sold the vineyard to American banker Bob Wilmers, but Véronique Sanders continues to manage it. Gentle, almost discreet tannins, a delicate balance, "without anything too much" as Jean Sanders likes to say, define the incomparable Haut Bailly style. Nothing ostentatious in this wine that embodies Bordeaux finesse.
