La Parde de Haut Bailly 2009
Pessac-Léognan, Graves, Bordeaux, FranceLike the first wine, a fine and pure effort. Spicy, black olive, cassis, black berry, black pepper, vanilla, leather, iron and earth aromas. Dry, round, smooth, suave and fresh palate. Smoky, earthy, cassis, black berry, vanilla, coffee, leather, prune, olive and light green bean flavours. Very good balance and finesse for drinking now - 7 years. Good value too.Tasted: 28 November 2012Tasted by: Stuart TobePrices:BC | $35.00 | 750ml | specialty - sold out |
