    In a few words ...

    Assembly : 66% cabernet sauvignon / 34% merlot vinification : The grapes are harvested by hand with the greatest care for selection, both in the vineyard and in the cellar. Vinification takes place in cement vats and blending in stainless steel tanks. Malolactic fermentation takes place in barrels. The wine is aged for 18 months in oak barrels, with 50 to 65% of the barrels renewed. TASTING : château haut-bailly 2014 is a wine that reveals lovely red fruit aromas that mingle with notes of blond tobacco, a sign of a very fair intake of wood. The palate is characterized by a lovely velvety texture and fruity freshness, in the image of summer 2014. An ample, generous wine, full of personality, worthy of the appellation's major successes.

    Tasting notes

    Appearance

    The wines have a dense but lighter robe than the medoc. The hue is ruby ​​with a touch ranging from purple to brick depending on the evolution.

    Aroma

    The bouquet is often fruity, with currant and other red and black fruits to which are added smoked or roasted notes.

    Wine Floral | Fruity | Spicy

    Taste

    Composed on average of 50% Merlot and 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, the red wines of Pessac-Léognan make a good compromise between marked tannins and the greediness of the fruit. We thus find red and ripe fruits, and empyreumatic notes.
