Sipping Fine Wine

9.1

Used a Corvin 3X over 6 months, still fresh, great product. Second wine of Chateau Haut-Bailly, a blend of 60% Merlot, 30% Cab Sauv & 10% Cab Franc, deep Ruby with aromas of black fruits, cassis and flinty notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry, red currants and juicy blueberry with cedar notes and baking spice. Firm tannins, medium acidity ending tangy with fruit and mineral finish. Very Nice! — 6 days ago

Spicy nose, typical left bank mouthfeel. Definitly good but just missing the X factor. Long finish though. — 13 days ago

This a a wonderful Pessac, mid-weight, classic and completely mature. Dark fruit, sweet spicy tobacco, dusty sandalwood, black olives and damp earth. Soft, well integrated tannines, perfect acidity - supportive and refreshing.
Very, very good. — 2 days ago

A bit too cold and probably too young. After some additional air it started to reveal its qualities. Looks like a promising wine — 7 days ago

I thought the wine was dead but after 1 hour in the decanter it exploded into life. Aromatics overload. Time to drink up — 6 days ago

Great bell paper and herbaceous notes complement this wine’s red fruit and nice acidity. A steal at $35. — a month ago

Incredible. Black cherry on the nose with the palate being white pepper black currant and tobacco. Smooth tannins and longer finish. Refined beauty — 21 hours ago

This is a darn good, highly-extracted Bordeaux. Almost reminds me of a hypothetical blend of a Pessac and a Napa Cab. Intense nose jumps from the glass with cassis, dark baker’s chocolate, and cigar box. Intense and mouthfilling, it’s palate-staining and still puckery with tannins. The flavors are very clingy and long, with loads of savory, dark gravelly flavors taking the lead. Soft acids. — 2 hours ago
