Red wine | Cru Classé de Graves Pessac-Léognan AC

One of the best Haut Baillys that I have tasted since 1964. (Jean-Marc Quarin, 2011)

Château Haut-Bailly is certainly the most elegant Graves classified growth in Pessac-Léognan. Its predominance of Cabernet-Sauvignon over Merlot gives it incredible finesse and grandeur. A great wine typical of its terroir!
