La Parde de Haut-Bailly 2010 Review
This wine smells like cherries covered in autumn leaves, along with an earthy aroma of river rocks and a dash black pepper. The structure of the wine has tannins that are still reducing and melting into the wine. But that doesn’t take away from the enjoyment. It’s grippy with small waves of fruit rolling over your palate. When the tannins soften, the fruit will shine. This is a wine for steak or any lean meat. It can age more but is drinking very well now.
