Written Notes

2007 Haut-Bailly Closed and not very intense nose of dark, plummy cassis fruit, gravel dust, led pencil, herbs and meaty notes. Full and fruity attack with dark red fruit, led pencil and herbs. Light tannins and structure that makes the finish short and a bit disappointing. For early drinking. Drink now-2017 87p.

Deep ruby. Flirting nose of cassis, slightly floral over those Pessac-smoky minerals. Fresh acidity, a bit grippy tannins still, but ripe. Needs time, long if a bit lean.
