Haut-Bailly II
Pessac Leognan - Second Wine
Description
– – –
iDealwine Primeur tasting note : “The appealing, luscious, intense nose contains raspberry and blackcurrant notes. It’s a pure and fresh wine. The initial drop is lively before it moves onto a silky, round texture. The precise, fruity finish exudes energy and is complemented by elegant spiced and liquorice flavours.”
James Suckling : “This is very structured for the second wine, a chewy and layered red with lots of blackberry and blackcurrant character. It’s medium- to full-bodied, creamy and layered with a long finish. Muscular and flexing. Serious for a second wine. More tannic than 2022. 64% merlot, 34% cabernet sauvignon and 2% cabernet franc.”
