The 2012 La Parde de Haut-Bailly is a beautifully crafted second wine from this esteemed Bordeaux estate, offering a blend of 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, and 4% Cabernet Franc. While it may lack the complexity of its 2010 counterpart, it impresses with a polished and generous bouquet. Upon aeration, the wine reveals delicate hints of blood orange, likely from the Merlot, adding a fresh, vibrant note to its aromatic profile. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with a soft, silky entry that gives way to a fleshier texture than the 2010 vintage. It offers commendable depth, with predominant dark fruit flavors intertwined with a subtle seam of pencil lead, adding complexity. The finish is fresh and lively, leaving a clean, vibrant impression. The 2012 La Parde de Haut-Bailly is a charming wine that reflects the estate’s signature style, with elegance, depth, and a delightful balance between fruit and structure.

I like this Reserva from RdD. 100% Tempranillo aged for 24 months in oak barrels.
3.8 stars with more aging potential.
A deep ruby red and purple shades. Thick long legs in the glass.
On the nose medium intense aromas of blackberries, black cherries, black raspberries, horse saddle, leather and slightly oak.

90 pts Given the quality of the Crianza I really was delighted to find this Reserva, needs way more time to fully flower however, still very enjoyable for me now. The Crianza is ready now, but this shows sleeping intensity and great future potential and longevity, wait a few years however.
Typical earthy red fruit with good use of oak, dusty vanilla. Weighty, full with a long finish, it will be a star in the future.
