"This is a very successful wine with wood and fruit notes that combine seamlessly with layers of acidity. At its base is a serious structure of dark tannins; on top juicy black fruits shine. This is a wine for long-term aging. "
James Suckling: 93-94 Points
"A subtle and refined wine with savory salty and delicately fruity character. Full body fine tannins and a fresh finish. Compacted and tight. Lovely tension. Precise"

A wine that has always drunk well the 2014 Château Haut-Bailly has a charming forward yet also incredibly elegant profile as well as terrific freshness in its ripe darker berry fruit. It shows complex floral spicy and lead pencil nuances with time in the glass and it's a medium-bodied nicely concentrated Haut-Bailly with nothing out of place fine polished tannins and a great finish. This Cabernet Sauvignon-heavy blend (66% Cabernet Sauvignon and 34% Merlot) is going to continue drinking spectacularly well over the coming 20-25 years.

A wonderful expression of ripe Cabernet Sauvignon which is 60% of the blend. The nose is oaky but delicate. Suave and velvety with very ripe tannins and impeccable concentration. Intens

The 2014 Haut-Bailly has a very attractive bouquet. Blackberry raspberry rose petals tobacco and incense are well defined and very focused. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins a fine bead of acidity fresh and focused with a very harmonious and elegant finish. This is beginning to drink beautifully now and will continue to meliorate. Superb. Tasted at the Haut-Bailly vertical at the château. - By Neal Martin on June 2021

"The 2014 Haut Bailly has a charming quite intense bouquet with layers of blackberry raspberry coulis black olive and melted tar scents that soar from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin well-judged acidity harmonious and focused with superb density and precision towards the finish. This is a classy number and alongside Domaine de Chevalier it is one of the standouts from the appellation in this vintage." -Neal Martin
