Château Haut-Bailly (Cru Classé de Graves)2015

Blended from Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, Pessac-Léognan wines are beautifully balanced with fine-grained structured tannins, and exhibit classic notes of tobacco, cassis, dark cherry, leather and tar, as well as a distinctive minerality. Some of the best wines are described as smoky and have hints of truffle. Located within the wider Graves appellation in Bordeaux's Left Bank, Pessac-Léognan boasts the region's best soils; the resulting wines have excellent aging potential. Pessac-Léognan also makes whites from Sauvignon Blanc and Sèmillon.
