Vinous

The 2019 La Chapelle de Haut-Bages Libéral is bright, sculpted and super-transparent. Crushed red berry fruit, mint, spice and rose petal are nicely lifted. The 2019 was aged 60% in barrel and 40% in cement eggs, which gives the wine freshness and cut. La Chapelle is atypical for Pauillac, but very pretty and compelling just the same.
