the 2015 is a terrific choice for drinking now and over the next handful of years

On the palate there are firm tannins

silky tannins that frame a core of ripe blue and purple fruit

this wine is dense and full of firm tannins

Chateau Haut-Bailly, Pessac-Leognan, France 2010 Shellfish the 2015 is a terrificCoiled and reserved at first, smoky cigar box as it opens, vivid and beautifully sleek blackcurrant, bilberry and blueberry fruits, taut and structured tannins even at 14 years old, with pencil lead and olive paste studding the palate from beginning to end. Plenty of estate signature in its finessed spirit, coupled with the concentration and swagger of the 2010 vintage. Harvest September 22 to October 14. Denis Dubourdieu consultant, Gabriel Vialard
