I have always felt 1989 Montrose the better wine of the dynamic duo. 21 years after the 1990 Montrose was made, my view has suddenly changed.
Haut Bailly is a finesse styled Bordeaux wine perfectly combining spicy, ripe fruit, smoke & tobacco filled aromatics and supple textures producing a wine of complexity and balance.
Most mornings, I start my day with an espresso, toast, or a piece of fruit. But every now and then, that should be accompanied by a side of decadence.
I always prefer to order a split of something amazing than a glass of anything good. Most serious food restaurants offer a nice selection of half bottles…
This wine is no shrinking violet. It is thick, rich, pure and aromatic. The tannins are soft and the plush texture is pure elegance.
While it’s still early, this first look at 2010 Bordeaux wine from Pomerol, St. Emilion and a few wines from the satellite appellations can be considered a preview of what’s to come.
