Classified Red Wine. Cru Classe de Graves in 1959.
Expert tasting note: "Deep, dark ruby-red is not opaque. The nose displays vivid, clean & slightly confected blackcurrant aromas. The dark fruit on the palate is fresh, but also has a leafy/weedy aspect. Acidity is fresh & alcohol is balanced. Plentiful oak means the structure currently lacks suppleness. The extract takes over the mid palate, leaving a drying finish that is quite short." - 11/05 DCAMW

- Producer Notes
- Renowned as one of the world’s most elegant wines, the character of Château Haut-Bailly is a series of unlikely paradoxes. It is as complex as it is balanced: deliberate and discrete, powerful and gentle, immediate and timeless. Each vintage is unique and true to itself just as each vintage is consistent and true to the unquestionable character of Haut-Bailly.

The 2001 Bordeaux vintage was very good but just short of great.
The growing season was marred by unpredictable weather patterns verging from too cool to too warm with periods of intense rain followed by drought.
A cold spring finally warmed up in May when a heatwave str...
