Full-bodied, concentrated, and powerful, it nevertheless cuts a focused, precise path across the palate and brings incredible purity in its darker fruits, smoked tobacco, cedar pencil, and Asian spice-driven aromas and flavors. The tannin quality here is off the charts, and this beauty has everything you could want from wine. It needs a solid 4-6 years (if not longer) to hit the early stages of its prime drinking window, and it\u0027s going to evolve for 50+ years.","Blurb3":null,"ItemNumber":87195,"LimitedToStores":false,"Score1":"97","Score2":"99","Score3":null,"SourceId1":3,"SourceId2":11,"SourceId3":0,"Id":28895},"BlurbSource":{"Name":"Vinous Media","Abbreviation":"VM","Id":3},"CategoryId":1,"Producer":"Chateau Haut Bailly","Id":175898,"CustomProperties":{}},{"Name":"2021 Chateau Haut Bailly - Pessac","ShortDescription":null,"FullDescription":null,"SeName":"2021-chateau-haut-bailly-pessac-future-eta-2024","StockQuantity":1,"Sku":"91375","BottleSize":"750ml","ProductType":"SimpleProduct","MarkAsNew":false,"ProductPrice":{"OldPrice":null,"OldPriceValue":null,"Price":"$120.00","PriceValue":120.0000,"BasePricePAngV":null,"BasePricePAngVValue":null,"DisableBuyButton":false,"DisableWishlistButton":false,"DisableAddToCompareListButton":true,"AvailableForPreOrder":false,"PreOrderAvailabilityStartDateTimeUtc":null,"IsRental":false,"ForceRedirectionAfterAddingToCart":false,"DisplayTaxShippingInfo":false,"CustomProperties":{}},"DefaultPictureModel":{"ImageUrl":"https://www.bassins.com/images/thumbs/008/0084123_2021-chateau-haut-bailly-pessac-bordeaux-future-eta-2024_360.png","ThumbImageUrl":null,"FullSizeImageUrl":"https://www.bassins.com/images/thumbs/008/0084123_2021-chateau-haut-bailly-pessac-bordeaux-future-eta-2024.png","Title":"Show details for 2021 Chateau Haut Bailly - Pessac","AlternateText":"Picture of 2021 Chateau Haut Bailly - Pessac","CustomProperties":{}},"ProductSpecificationModel":{"Groups":[],"CustomProperties":{}},"ReviewOverviewModel":{"ProductId":180074,"RatingSum":0,"TotalReviews":0,"AllowCustomerReviews":false,"CanAddNewReview":true,"CustomProperties":{}},"Blurb":{"Author1":"Antonio Galloni","Author2":null,"Author3":null,"Blurb1":" The 2021 Haut-Bailly is incredibly poised, even if it is clearly a wine of reserve in this vintage.
