The wine entices with an almost opaque appearance and proceeds in serving up and traces of aromatic blue and black fruits, perfume, and flowers. The lasting finish is savory and delightful. One may be tempted to drink it sooner than later. Patience will have its rewards and yield a supremely delicious wine with a decade in the bottle.

This already has a fine balance with its ripe juiciness and delicious red-berry flavors. It is going to develop into a very fine wine.

The bright fruit and lively acidity balance the moderately dry tannins very well, and the finish is long and quite complex. Compacted. Needs time to open. Beautiful.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRP94\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRobert Parker's Wine Advocate\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe 2014 Haut Bailly has a charming, quite intense bouquet with layers of blackberry, raspberry coulis, black olive and melted tar scents that soar from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, well-judged acidity, harmonious and focused with superb density and precision towards the finish. This is a classy number and alongside Domaine de Chevalier, it is one of the standouts from the appellation in this vintage.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eD94\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDecanter\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLovely restrained black fruit and pencil shavings on the nose, beautifully extracted, although the fruit is not quite as vibrant as in the best vintages of this excellent property. Good persistency, a supremely elegant take on the vintage, in the line of 2001. 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Merlot. A masterclass as ever in precision winemaking, and although there is 8% of press wine it gives weight without straining the structure.

Loads of tobacco and tar details join in on the finish, while the fruit easily keeps pace. Rock-solid. Best from 2020 through 2035.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJD94\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJeb Dunnuck\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe 2014 Château Haut Bailly is a beauty and shows the best of the vintage in its charming, forward, complex bouquet of black cherries, kirsch, dried flowers, and black raspberries, with just a hint of building earthy minerality and tobacco. Pure silk on the palate, with medium to full body, ripe, present tannins, and a great mid-palate, it’s a rock star 2014 to enjoy over the coming two decades or so.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Château Haut-Bailly","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43279574597856,"sku":"111928","price":129.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/products\/chateau-haut-bailly-chateau-haut-bailly-cru-classe-de-graves_1_12667f46-cbca-4bd1-b182-1635979415e9.jpg?v=1663884116","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/chateau-haut-bailly-chateau-haut-bailly-cru-classe-de-graves-2014-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
