Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate

(01-1998)
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.

Château informations

Haut Bailly

The Château Haut-Bailly is a french estate that produce Graves grands crus classés in Pessac-Leognan appellation.

Château Haut-Bailly is one of the few major properties to produce only red. In 1998, the Sanders family sold the vineyard to an American banker, Bob Wilmers, but Veronique Sanders continues to manage. Tannins wise, almost discreet, a delicate balance, "without anything too" as he likes to say, Jean Sanders, define the incomparable style Haut Bailly. Nothing conspicuous in this wine that embodies the finesse of Bordeaux.
