BUY THE WINE

The first wine under Wilmers’s ownership. It’s fully developed and pleasurable to drink now. Some Haut-Bailly hallmarks are certainly here—silky texture, savory-leafy fruit, balance—but it doesn’t have the length of more recent vintages. The richness comes from the year’s superlative Merlot from very old vines. | 88
