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."
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."
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."
Wonderful finesse and length to this wine. Loads of plum and berry, with hints of raspberry. Full-bodied, with a solid, velvety core of ripe fruit and tannins. Long finish. One of the few Pessacs better in 2000 than 1998. American-owned. Best after 2010. 6,665 cases made."
Delicate, elegant, graceful and easy to drink today, this medium bodied, soft wine leaves with fresh, silky, smoky, spicy red and black fruits in the finish. There is no real hurry to drink this, however, at close to 15 years of age, there is no need to wait to pop a cork seeking further development."
Deep colour but mature with a brick edge. Ripe and quite intense. Even a little brooding. Dark fruits with a streak of graphite. Palate quite racy with Graves minerality and freshness. Still flexing some muscle with a grainy quality to the tannins. Clean, dry, mouth-cleansing finish."
It has been a little while since I last tasted the 2000 Haut Bailly. Now at 17 years of age it does not quite deliver the authority and the pedigree of the 2005 or 2010, moving into secondary notes with cedar wood, smoke and a touch of undergrowth, though it has lost a little cohesion. The palate is medium-bodied with a very well balanced opening. Hints of clove and black pepper infuse the black fruit, and it exerts a gentle grip in the mouth with quite a persistent finish. You can broach this now although it should continue to drink well for another 15-20 years. Tasted March 2017."
