Château Haut-Bailly Pessac-Léognan Haut-Bailly II 2018

The first vintage where La Parde de Haut-Bailly (in production since 1967) became Haut-Bailly II, and although young, it can be opened now, and will really start to deliver over the next few years. There is such control on display, with the balance and finesse that you expect from the team here, majoring on a ton of cassis, bilberry, liqourice, pencil lead and cigar box. 30% new oak.
