I love the slightly fuller expression, it’s not lacking in depth or attitude and fills the mouth with a fleshy grip yet still lifted, bright and so cool. Impressive. Haut Bailly has been one of the more delicate wines in recent vintages and this is a little more upfront, lively and characterful and I love it for that – while still keeping elegance and refinement. Ripe, punchy, bright, forward. A great success. 4% Petit Verdot completes the blend.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"review\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"score\"\u003e96-98\/100\u003c\/span\u003eNeal Martin, Vinous\n\u003cp\u003e\"The 2025 Haut-Bailly was picked between September 4 and 22 at 26.6 hi\/ha, raised in 50% new\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"hg-term\" data-hg-term=\"Oak\"\u003eoak\u003c\/span\u003e.
