Chateau Haut-Bailly Pessac Leognan

Das Chateau Haut-Bailly überschaut seit mehr als vier Jahrhunderten einen 30 Hektar großen Weinberg aus einem Unterboden aus Muschelkalk und einem Boden aus Sand und Kieseln aus dem Quartär. Das Ansehen, das dieser Cru im Laufe des 19 Jahrhunderts errungen hat, platziert ihn unter den größten Weinen des Bordelais. Und das Wort „außergewöhnlich“, das oft mit Haut-Bailly in Verbindung gebracht wird, unterstreicht die Noblesse seiner Weine. Das Chateau Haut-Bailly profitiert auf einem Viertel seiner Fläche von einhundert Jahre alten Rebstöcken. Und besitzt ein einzigartiges Terroir, das seinen Weinen eine außerordentliche Gleichmäßigkeit verleiht. Es verdankt seine Prestige dem unnachahmlichen Stil seiner großen Weine, die unabhängig vom Charakter des Jahrgangs von Finesse und Eleganz geprägt sind.

Chateau Haut Bailly 2016 Pessac Leognan

Lisa Perrotti Brown am 30.11.2018

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.

Antonio Galloni bewertet den Haut Bailly 2016 im Januar 2019 wie folgt:

A big. vertical wine. the 2016 Haut-Bailly explodes onto the palate with tremendous depth and intensity. Readers should be in no rush to drink the 2016. as it won't be close to ready to drink for at least a decade. and I say that as an eternal optimist. Black cherry. smoke. tobacco. cedar. gravel and incense add to the wine's decidedly somber personality.

James Suckling im Februar 2019:

Wonderful aromas of tobacco. sweet fruit and licorice follow through to a full body with ultra-fine tannins that caress every inch of your palate. Love the length and subtlety to this young wine. Gorgeous. Drink after 2024.

Neal Martin im Januar 2019:

The 2016 Haut-Bailly was mightily impressive when tasted from barrel. Now. matured in 50% new oak and bottled at the end of April 2018 (they prefer to bottle before spring here). it has a very well defined bouquet of black fruit. graphite. crushed stone and light rose petal aromas that gain intensity with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with quite grippy tannin. This Haut-Bailly feels pure and classic in style. offering well-judged acidity and a sophisticated. quite tensile finish that lingers long in the mouth. I suspect this might close down in a year or two and deserves perhaps 8 to 10 years in bottle to show what it can really do. The best Haut-Bailly in the modern era? For certain.

James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Haut Bailly 2018 Pessac Leognan wie folgt:

Incredible depth of fruit to this with a center palate that shows superb character and texture. I love the hazelnut and coffee-bean undertones to the beautiful fruit. which shows great finesse. Full-bodied yet compact and tight. giving a sense of agility and flight to the wine. Extremely tight and polished tannins.

Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Haut Bailly 2018 Pessac Leognan wie folgt:

The 2018 Haut-Bailly is blended of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon. 35% Merlot. 5% Petit Verdot and 5% Cabernet Franc. Grapes were harvested September 17 to October 9. and the wine has 14.4% alcohol. Deep purple-black in color. it opens slowly with profound notions of Black Forest cake. crème de cassis. roasted nuts and black olives. unfurling to reveal notions of menthol. crushed rocks. molten licorice and chargrilled meat plus a hint of lilacs. Full-bodied. rich and densely laden with layer upon layer of vibrant black fruits and mineral nuances. it has a solid backbone of firm. velvety tannins and seamless freshness. finishing very long with compelling restraint and exciting energy.

Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Haut Bailly 2018 Pessac Leognan wie folgt:

The 2018 Haut-Bailly speaks with real authority and class. Deeply spiced notes lead into a core of red/purplish berry fruit. lavender. licorice. new leather. menthol and tobacco. Vivid and dramatic in bearing. the 2018 possesses striking resonance from start to finish. There is plenty of tannin as well. but it is pretty much buried by the sheer luxuriousness of the fruit. while the mid-palate and saline-infused finish show terrific freshness as well as purity. The blend is 55% Cabernet Sauvignon. 35% Merlot. 5% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot.

Chateau Haut Bailly 2019 Pessac Leognan

James Suckling über den Chateau Haut Bailly 2019 Pessac Leognan:

8 Feb, 2022 – Extremely aromatic, with incredible wet-earth, bark, stone and graphite notes on the nose, then changing to violets, blackberries and blackcurrants. Full-bodied, yet so linear and fine, with titanium tannins that go on so long. Builds and builds then just rolls around the palate through the endless finish. Real Bordeaux here. 56% cabernet sauvignon, 36% merlot, 4% cabernet franc, and 4% petit verdot. Exceptional. Better after 2029.

William Kelley im April 2022:

The 2019 Haut-Bailly unwinds in the glass with complex aromas of dark berries, bay leaf, loamy soil and cigar wrapper, framed by a discreet patina of new oak. Full-bodied, velvety and elegantly muscular, it's powerful and concentrated, with lively acids and an abundance of ripe but youthfully assertive structuring tannin that will demand some patience.

Antonio Galloni (Vinous) bewertet den Chateau Haut Bailly 2019 Pessac Leognan:

The 2019 Haut-Bailly is a huge, powerful wine. There is plenty of the richness of this warm vintage, but a ton of tannin too. In most warmer years, Haut-Bailly can be a real charmer upfront, but in 2019 it's all about somber dark fruit, tannin and structure. A wine of breadth and power, Haut-Bailly will need many years in the cellar to truly blossom. It's unquestionably a big wine with a brilliant future. Bright aromatics lend freshness as the 2019 continues to open with air.

Und Neal Martin (Vinous) zum Chateau Haut Bailly 2019 Pessac Leognan:

The 2019 Haut-Bailly, matured in 50% new oak and bottled in April 2021, has a stunning, classy and sophisticated bouquet of blackberry, melted tar, Earl Grey and light minerally scents. This is extremely focused, almost pixelated. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins, but there is real backbone and structure to this wine. Deep, intense, classy and classic in style, delivering an immense amount of sapidity on the enormously persistent finish. As I mentioned previously, this is a less flamboyant Haut-Bailly, but more intellectual.

Christian Balog beschreibt den Wein wie folgt:

94-96 Punkte
Sehr komplexer Duft, dunkle Beeren, feine Würze. Im Mund sehr schön, mit guter Konzentration, wieder eine gewisse Salzigkeit.

William Kelly zum Chateau Haut Bailly 2021 Pessac Leognan (April 2022):

A classic in the making, the 2021 Haut-Bailly wafts from the glass with aromas of dark berries and wild plums mingled with sweet spices, loamy soil, raw cocoa and violets. Medium to full-bodied, seamless and concentrated, with bright acids, ultra-refined tannins and a long, penetrating finish, it's a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, only 22% Merlot, 10% Petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc. With yields of a mere 19 hectoliters per hectare, it's impressively intensely flavored despite its quintessentially elegant, classically proportioned profile. In many respects, it may represent the Cabernet-driven modern-day alter ego of the superb Merlot-dominant 1998 Haut-Bailly.

Jeb Dunnuck im Juni: 93-95+ / 100

The 2021 Château Haut-Bailly checks in as 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot, 10% Petit Verdot, and the rest Cabernet Franc. It's another elegant, pure, incredibly balanced wine from this château, offering complex aromatics (cassis, smoked tobacco, spicy wood, and earth), medium body, ripe, supple tannins, and a great finish. Hitting 13% alcohol with a pH of 3.9, this seamless beauty will drink nicely right out of the gate yet evolve for 25-30 years.

Die Bewertung für den Chateau Haut Bailly 2021 Pessac Leognan vom Wine Cellar Insider lautet wie folgt.

The Wine Cellar Insider (Jeff Leve) : 94-96 / 100

Initially you notice the blackberries, black plums and black currants before moving on to the tobacco, flowers, spice and smoke in the aromatic profile. Supple, refined and elegant, perhaps the best way to describe the wine is modern chic, or modern classic, if you prefer. The tannins are soft and polished, the fruit is pure, clean and fresh, with a salty, mildly-chalky, supple endnote. Although it is going to probably always be a bit reticent in character, you will be able to approach and enjoy this wine in its youth, as well as age it for more complexity. The wine blends 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot, 10% Petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc. The blend represents the the highest percentage of Petit Verdot in the history of the estate. 13% ABV, pH 3.9. The harvest took place September 27 to October 11. The Grand Vin was produced from 50% of the harvest. 2021 is the first vintage produced in their new, state-of-the-art cellars. Drink from 2025-2055.

Blackberry. walnut. iodine. and sandalwood aromas follow through to a full body. round and juicy tannins and an intense. flavorful finish. This shows richness with structure. Excellent 2017. Try after 2023.

The 2017 Haut-Bailly is racy and polished to the core, with no hard edges and just exceptional beauty. Dark cherry, plum, chocolate, spice, new leather, incense, and grilled herb overtones infuse the 2017 with striking layers of nuance, but it is the wine's feel that really elevates it into the realm of Pessac-Léognan's best. The 2017 is an elegant and exceptionally understated Haut-Bailly.

94 Punkte von Jeb Dunnuck für den Chateau Haut Bailly 2017 Pessac Leognan

A blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot and 4% Cabernet Franc, the 2017 Chateau Haut-Bailly spent 16 months in 50% new French oak. It reveals a medium ruby hue as well as a classic, medium-bodied, elegant yet also ripe style that's common in the vintage. With medium body, ripe, polished tannins, beautiful elegance and purity, and a great finish, it's a terrific wine in the vintage that will drink well for 25-30 years

Antonio Galloni (Vinous) bewertet den Haut Bailly II 2019 Pessac Leognan:

The 2019 Haut-Bailly II is much more elegant and nuanced than it was from barrel, always a great thing to see. Silky tannins wrap around a core of bright red berry, spice, tobacco, cedar and mint in this gracious, mid-weight second wine from the estate. The 2019 will surely improve in bottle, but it is pretty enticing today.

Und Neal Martin (Vinous) zum Haut Bailly II 2019 Pessac Leognan:

The 2019 Haut-Bailly II, the second wine of Haut-Bailly, has accentuated the sous-bois elements on the nose since bottling, now feeling quintessentially Pessac-Léognan and quite marine-influenced in style. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, taut and fresh, still a little piquant on the finish but with more precision than I recall. This is very impressive. Excellent.

La Parde de Haut Bailly 2016 Pessac Leognan

Antonio Galloni Januar 2019:

The 2016 La Parde Haut-Bailly is gorgeous. supple and wonderfully inviting. Even so. there is quite a bit of supporting structure that gives the wine its energy and overall shape. Smoke. tobacco. cedar. licorice and leather add aromatic nuance. but it is the wine's textural depth that stands out most. La Parde is a second wine that overdelivers. big time.

Lisa Perrotti Brown im November 2018:

The medium garnet-purple colored 2016 La Parde de Haut-Bailly comes bursting out of the glass with cassis. redcurrant jelly. fragrant earth and dried Provence herbs scents plus a waft of lavender. Medium to full-bodied. firm. grainy textured and packed with fruit. it delivers a long and mineral-laced finish.

A firm and velvety red with berry and tobacco character and hints of walnuts. Medium body. round and juicy tannins and a medium finish. A blend of 47 per cent merlot. 47 per cent cabernet sauvignon and six per cent cabernet franc. Second wine of Château Haut-Bailly. Try after 2021.

Für das entgegengebrachte Interesse möchten wir uns bedanken.

Wir bieten in den nächsten Wochen den 2019er Jahrgang in der Arrivage an.

Die Degustationsnotiz des Wine Advocate zum Haut Bailly II 2020 Pessac Leognan :

Composed of 46% Cabernet Sauvignon and 54% Merlot, the 2020 Haut-Bailly II was harvested from the 9th to 25th of September. Deep garnet-purple in color, it skips out of the glass with easy-breezy notes of cassis, fresh black plums and raspberry leaves, plus hints of wild thyme, tilled soil and ground cloves. The medium-bodied palate is soft and juicy with just enough black fruit and savory flavors and a refreshing finish.

91-93 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Chateau Haut Bailly II 2020

Das meint die Vinous-Mannschaft um Antonio Galloni zum Chateau Haut Bailly II:

The 2020 Haut-Bailly II was picked September 9–25. It offers a mélange of red and black fruit on the nose, hints of morels/undergrowth lending complexity, then becoming more floral with aeration, all quite mercurial in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit that gently grips. Very marine in style, shucked oyster shells infusing the sappy finish, which leaves an impressively long aftertaste considering this is the Deuxième Vin. Excellent.

Die Degustationsnotiz des Wine Advocate zum Chateau Haut Bailly 2020 Pessac Leognan :

A blend of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 42% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot, the 2020 Haut-Bailly was harvested from the 9th to 25th of September. It has an alcohol of 14.3%. Deep purple-black in color, it prances out of the glass with naturally beautiful notions of fresh black cherries, violets, mulberries and boysenberries, giving way to hints of redcurrant jelly, star anise, tilled soil and menthol. The medium to full-bodied palate is delicately crafted with velvety/grainy tannins and fantastic freshness framing the perfumed red and black berry layers, finishing on a lingering fragrant-earth note.

James Suckling schreibt zum Chateau Haut Bailly 2020 Pessac Leognan Folgendes:

This has incredible power and drive with blackberry, black olive and graphite. It’s full-bodied, yet dynamic and agile, with so much polished and muscular tannin. Yet, it remains in harmony and balance. So much character. The head of the chateau calls it diabolical beauty. 25% less production than the 2019. 52% cabernet sauvignon, 42% merlot, 3% cabernet franc and 3% petit verdot.

95-97 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Chateau Haut Bailly 2020

Das meint die Vinous-Mannschaft um Antonio Galloni zum Chateau Haut Bailly:

The 2020 Haut-Bailly was picked September 9–25 in what the estate has called the "year of reinvention." Having left my sample to open for 30 minutes and then assessed it over the following three hours, I found that it has a mercurial nose of gorgeous blackberry, briar, white pepper, incense and hints of blood orange. It gains intensity and becomes more floral with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with supple but firm tannins that provide backbone. There is plenty of black fruit laced with white pepper and clove. Perhaps less rich on the finish compared to the last two vintages – a virtue as far as I am concerned, as it allows more terroir to show through. This is an impressive Haut-Bailly to coincide with their new winery, which I hope to visit very soon
