Nice wine. With pleasant nose, lovely palate and moderate finish that is very pleasant. Good balance.

Gravel and earth on the nose supported by jammy red and black fruits and a slight floral component. Palate was soft and intense with more damp earth character and black fruits followed by tart acidity. Showing some fine sediment with a mid to long finish.

Generally more Merlot than Haut Bailly. This is an excellent effort and drinkable now.
