2008 Chateau Haut Bailly Pessac Leognan Grand Cru Classe from this lot has the following scores - The Wine Advocate 96 points, Jeb Dunnuck 96 points, Falstaff Magazine 95 points, Vinous 94 points, Decanter 94 points, Jeff Leve The Wine Cellar Insider 94 points. 2010 Chateau Haut Bailly Pessac Leognan Grand Cru Classe from this lot has the following scores - Decanter 100 points, Jeb Dunnuck 100 points. This is the tasting note for 2010 Chateau Haut Bailly Pessac Leognan Grand Cru Classe from Robert Parker - with a score of 95 points. The 2010 Haut Bailly has consistently been a fantastic wine, and at seven years of age I have no reason to alter that view. It has a mixture of red and black fruit on the nose, wet stone, black olive and a light marine influence. It is still backward compared to other vintages, but it has not relinquished one iota of its intensity. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin. This is a voluminous Haut Bailly, one that is beginning to stretch its muscles, with a gentle grip in the mouth with a wonderful saline finish. There is huge potential locked into this wine, but patience is needed. . 2016 Chateau Haut Bailly Pessac Leognan Grand Cru Classe from this lot has the following scores - Jeb Dunnuck 100 points. This is the tasting note for 2016 Chateau Haut Bailly Pessac Leognan Grand Cru Classe from Robert Parker - with a score of 98 points. The 2016 Haut-Bailly is medium to deep garnet-purple in color. The nose opens with beautiful floral notes of violets and lavender accented with earthy notions and sparks of crushed rocks over a core of kirsch, cassis and wild blueberries. Full-bodied, rich and seductive, it has layer upon layer of red, black and blue fruits intermingled with earth and mineral hints leading to a very long, perfumed finish.
