"The ruby colour retains a vibrant core, aromatics flirting with tertiary, softened raspberry and brambled blackberry fruits, campfire and grilled cedar smoke, this is balanced and effortless while building in concentration through the glass, layering up with pulses of black pepper, rosemary, oyster shell, pomegranate and mandarin. The 2000 vintage took its time but it is now seriously in its stride. Harvest September 13 to October 11. Denis Dubourdieu consultant, Véronique Sanders director and CEO as of this vintage. 50% new oak."
"A gorgeous wine that is still flexing its muscles, showing controlled brilliance, barely putting a step out of line. The tannins are perfectly integrated but full of life, and the fruit is savoury with autumnal berries of blackberry and bilberry, set against grilled cedar, cool ash and careful flicks of black pepper spice. The overall character remains concentrated, barely a hint of tertiary flavours, still well bedded down with a long life ahead of it. A stretched-out harvest from September 13 to October 11, giving plenty of time to pick at full ripeness."
"The 2000 Château Haut-Bailly is a clear step up over the 1998 and 1999, offering medium to full-bodied richness as well as wonderful purity in its darker currants, tobacco, chocolate, and graphite-like aromas and flavors. It’s concentrated and powerful, yet most of the baby fat has fallen away, and this is a classic Haut-Bailly (despite being a more Merlot-shifted blend) that has ripe, polished tannins, a seamless mouthfeel, and a great finish."
"Recht dunkles Rubingranat, ockerfarbene Reflexe, breiterer Wasserrand. Anklänge von Herzkirschen, Lakritze, kandierten Veilchen, Orangenzesten, sehr einladendes Bukett. Saftig, rotbeeriger Touch, feine Süße in der Textur, lebendiger Säurebogen, zart nach Ribiseln, salzig-zitroniger Touch im Abgang, gut entwickelt, ein lebendiger Speisenbegleiter, verfügt über weiteres Reifepotenzial, wirkt sehr jugendlich."
"Still very youthful but starting to show its wonderful depth, structure and complexity. It’s full-bodied with silky tannins and a pretty fruit character that goes from currants to sweet earth. A wine to enjoy now and in the future."
"Sehr dunkles Rubin-Purpur. Frisches, würzig-florales Bouquet, tintige Würze, Backpflaumen. Sattes, dichtes Extrakt, wiederum viel Würze, Lakritze, Tabak, schwarze Kirschen, nachhaltige Adstringenz, noch sanft aufrauhend, tolles Potential."
