Medium deep colour. Very pretty plum, violet, with touch aniseed and hint of dark chocolate. Richly concentrated dark plum, blackcurrant fruits, fine bittersweet graphite tannins, very good volume, underlying savoury notes and fresh indelible acidity. Finishes al dente firm with attractive mineral length. 65% Merlot 30% Cabernet Sauvignon 3% Cabernet Franc 2% Petit Verdot.(94-95) points, Andrew Caillard MW - The Vintage Journal (April 2023)

The 2022 Haut-Bailly II, a blend of 65% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Petit Verdot, is deep garnet-purple in color. Scents of black cherries, mulberries, and crushed blackcurrants jump from the glass, followed by wafts of fallen leaves, camphor, and crushed rocks. The medium to full-bodied palate is filled with juicy black fruits and earthy accents, supported by plush, rounded tannins and soft acidity, finishing with a peppery kick.
