Chateau Haut Bages Liberal 5eme Cru
-- Internet: -- WS: Shows friendly mocha and roasted tobacco up front, followed by a mouthfilling core of blackberry, plum and cassis. The dense but velvety finish has nice latent grip. 91-94/100 -- Suckling: A balanced young wine, with smoky, blackberry and chewy aromas and flavors. Full and velvety, with a fresh finish. 92-93/100 -- Parker: One of the best efforts from this estate since the 1982, this wine remains fairly priced. It exhibits ripe blue and black fruits, a dense plum/purple color, good acidity buttressing a remarkably rich, fleshy, sumptuous texture, and oodles of smoky black currant and blueberry fruit. Ripe, heady and rich, this wine will probably benefit from 2-5 years of cellaring despite its precociousness and keep for two decades. 92/100
