The Story

There are few places where terroir truly affects production but Château Haut-Bailly is definitely one of those. Château Haut-Bailly has a distinctive style that harmoniously combines classicism with modernity, elegance, finesse and softness with structure. The silky smoothness of the tannins echoes the elegant yet complex aromas.


Château Haut-Bailly has great ageing potential and consistently wins praise from experts who agree that it offers complex pleasure and a richness that is neither aggressive nor ostentatious. These are natural qualities which Haut-Bailly is determined to keep.
Each year the team at Château Haut-Bailly works hard at developing the quality of the wines without interfering with nature. Since 1998, thanks to even more stringent selection controls, the wine has gained a greater depth and precision.

Written Notes

1996 Château Haut-Bailly
Ruby, garnet rim. Rich, minerals, cassis, dates, spices, layered, detailed nose, intense. Superbly scented and lifted yet deep. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, juicy, detailed, layered and minerals, nuanced, incredible balance, long finish. Yes you may say it has a few hollow notes, it isn’t seamless, but I adore it! 93
