Antonio Galloni Januar 2019:
The 2016 La Parde Haut-Bailly is gorgeous. supple and wonderfully inviting. Even so. there is quite a bit of supporting structure that gives the wine its energy and overall shape. Smoke. tobacco. cedar. licorice and leather add aromatic nuance. but it is the wine's textural depth that stands out most. La Parde is a second wine that overdelivers. big time.
Lisa Perrotti Brown im November 2018:
The medium garnet-purple colored 2016 La Parde de Haut-Bailly comes bursting out of the glass with cassis. redcurrant jelly. fragrant earth and dried Provence herbs scents plus a waft of lavender. Medium to full-bodied. firm. grainy textured and packed with fruit. it delivers a long and mineral-laced finish.
James Suckling Januar 2019:
A firm and velvety red with berry and tobacco character and hints of walnuts. Medium body. round and juicy tannins and a medium finish. A blend of 47 per cent merlot. 47 per cent cabernet sauvignon and six per cent cabernet franc. Second wine of Château Haut-Bailly. Try after 2021.
