1982 Chateau Haut Bailly, Pessac Leognan"The 1982 vintage of Haut-Bailly is one of my favorites from this underrated estate in the decade of the 1980s. The bouquet is precise, complex and just starting to really blossom completely, as it offers up scents of red plums, cherries, nutskin, cigar wrapper, a beautiful base of soil, smoke and a touch of cedar. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and marvelously transparent down to its terroir, with a lovely core, modest tannins, nice, tangy acids and fine focus and grip on the complex finish. Like all top Haut-Baillys, this is not a blockbuster, but a perfumed and refined bottle of utterly classic claret. (Drink between 2018-2040)" 93 points - John Gilman (View From the Cellar, June 2020)
