Château Haut-Bailly 2000 Pessac-Léognan (Bordeaux)

Country: France / Pessac-Léognan
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend Bordeaux
Winery: Château Haut-Bailly / Bordeaux

For the vintage, this is an austere style of wine, emphasising tannins over fruit. The fruit is certainly rich, and the tannins are dusty rather than dry, but it is a wine which is developing more slowly, suggesting it is also a wine for long-term aging.
