Decanter om: Chateau Haut Bailly

A gorgeous wine that is still flexing its muscles, showing controlled brilliance, barely putting a step out of line. The tannins are perfectly integrated but full of life, and the fruit is savoury with autumnal berries of blackberry and bilberry, set against grilled cedar, cool ash and careful flicks of black pepper spice. The overall character remains concentrated, barely a hint of tertiary flavours, still well bedded down with a long life ahead of it. A stretched-out harvest from September 13 to October 11, giving plenty of time to pick at full ripeness. 96/100

Suckling om: Chateau Haut Bailly

Still very youthful but starting to show its wonderful depth, structure and complexity. It’s full-bodied with silky tannins and a pretty fruit character that goes from currants to sweet earth. A wine to enjoy now and in the future. 94/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau Haut Bailly

Showing beautifully and now fully mature, the 2000 Château Haut-Bailly has a Lafite-like cedar note as well as incredible elegance and purity, which certainly seems to be the hallmark of this terroir. Red and black currants, tobacco leaf, forest floor, truffle, and lead pencil notes all emerge from the glass, and this more medium-bodied, elegant 2000 has resolved tannins, no hard edges, and a beautiful finish. It’s drinking at point today yet will certainly evolve for another decade and have a gradual decline after that. This is for lovers of classically styled, elegant Bordeaux. 94/100

Haut Bailly

Indtil for nylig blev den drevet af hans søn Jean, som blev efterfulgt af sit barnebarn Véronique, som også er engageret i den traditionelle vinfremstilling. Et frisk pust og springet ind i det kvalitative overhus kom dog først med barnebarnet Veroniques overtagelse.
