One of Bordeaux's most delicate, elegant, graceful wines, Haut-Bailly's 1997 displays a deep ruby color, and already evolved sweet, spicy, red currant, and tobacco aromas. The wine is medium-bodied, subtle, richly fruity, and harmonious. This soft, forward Haut-Bailly will be at its best between 2000-2010.
