Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, January 23, 2008 - Haut-Bailly & Pape Clément (Compass): I am sort of torn about whether this is a sleeper of a wine or just an everyday drinker. It is pretty much textbook Leognan with deep cassis, smoke and earth. It's slightly on the thin side of medium-bodied and doesn't have much architecture, but it is wide open and impeccably balanced. A wine with an amiable, easygoing demeaner that will neither disappoint or set the world on fire. A nice wine to drink while you're waiting for your other vintages of Haut Bailly to age.
