  Still lots of fruit while tertiary aromas have clearly stared to develop. Very round and hedonistic. Nevertheless relatively fresh! Probably at peak. Great effort and pqr.

  Deep ruby, still very youthful looking. Ripe black plum and cherries, developing earthy notes with beautifully integrated tannins. Drinking beautifully and keeps giving new perspectives as it shifts in glass.

  Bought on release. 6h slow-ox
  This wine is the poster child for decanting wine. Completely closed upon opening, I was already wondering if I needed to try to sell the rest I own on auction. It took about 2h to open and I served it at 6h. It is old style, even for Graves. Masculine, leather, earth with a little sweet fruit in the early finish, which is moderate in length. More fruit with longer decants...a few others have mentioned that in their notes. At least for my taste/bottles, you MUST decant or slow ox. There was a significant difference between 3 and 6h slow ox that made me change my review(from 90 to 93 points). I am totally baffled about how RP could figure this out so well from early bottle, but his ability to assess young Bdx accurately continues to amaze me.

  Nase: intensives, komplexes Bouquet, ledrig, etwas rauchig
  Gaumen: vollmundig und kraftvoll, lebendige Säurestruktur, reife Tannine und gut eingebunden, samtige Textur, langer und leicht herber Abgang, was die Komplexität des Weins unterstreicht. Bei wiederholtem Probieren bleibt der Wein ausgewogen und harmonisch, mit einer anhaltenden Intensität
  Fazit: Der Château Haut-Bergey 2009 bestätigt seinen Ruf, ein hervorragendes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis zu bieten. Trotz der natürlichen Preissteigerung über die Jahre bleibt er eine attraktive Wahl für Liebhaber von Bordeaux-Weinen. Der aktuelle Marktpreis reflektiert die anerkannte Qualität dieses Weins. Mit Blick auf die Zukunft zeigt der Wein ein gutes Potenzial für weitere Reife, wobei eine Lagerung von weiteren 5 bis 7 Jahren durchaus empfehlenswert erscheint. Dies macht ihn zu einer lohnenden Investition sowohl für den sofortigen Genuss als auch für die Lagerung. Jüngere Jahrgänge sind ebenfalls empfehlenswert, auf dem Markt noch vorhanden und noch preisgünstig.
