Description
The saturated ruby/purple-hued 2011 Haut-Bailly exhibits a glorious, subtle, noble set of aromatics consisting of red and black currants, sweet cherries, graphite, truffles and a faint hint of wood spice. The wine hits the palate with the profound elegance and purity that have become so much a characteristic under Wilmers and Sanders. Still youthful, with good acidity and freshness, this brilliant, medium-bodied 2011 needs another 4-5 years of bottle age, and should evolve effortlessly for 20-25 years.

Tasting note
2017年的高柏麗酒莊是一款充滿矛盾的葡萄酒 - 既複雜又平衡,既強大又溫和,既即時又永恆。每一個年份都是獨一無二的,忠實於自己和高柏麗的無可置疑的特性。這款酒帶有深色的單寧,注定要長時間的陳年。濃度和堅實的結構與粉塵般的質地和乾燥的核心形成了平衡。多汁的黑色水果的潛力需要一段時間才能顯現出來,使這款酒成為那些欣賞耐心藝術的人的完美選擇。這款酒最好在醒酒後飲用,並與紅肉、野味或家禽搭配。
The 2017 Chateau Haut-Bailly is a wine of paradoxes - complex yet balanced, powerful yet gentle, immediate yet timeless. Each vintage is unique, true to itself and the unquestionable character of Haut-Bailly. The wine is firm with dark tannins, destined for long aging. The concentration and solid structure are balanced by a dusty texture and dry core. The potential of the juicy black fruits will take a while to come through, making this wine a perfect choice for those who appreciate the art of patience. The wine is best served decanted and paired with red meat, game or poultry.
