Description

Château Haut-Bailly's proud position tells a story of enduring good fortune, on the gentle slopes of Bordeaux's historic Graves region. Ancient archives prove that as early as 1461 these lands were already recognized as excellent for growing vines. Centuries of commitment and unwavering conviction have established Haut-Bailly as a visionary estate, but one that also possesses a wealth of memories.

The purchase of Haut-Bailly in 1955 by Daniel Sanders, a Belgian businessman, made it possible to restructure the vineyard and renovate the cellar, succeeding in giving its wines an unparalleled style and reputation, thus restoring its image in the international market.

The 2017 Haut-Bailly is composed of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc and 4% Petit Verdot. It presents a deep garnet/purple colour with a nose rich in spicy notes, roses, ripe blueberries and raspberries. On the palate, it stands out for its firm, ripe and elegant tannins. It is fresh and mineral at the end of the tasting.
