Chateau Haut-Bages-Liberal Pauillac 2010

Deep deep purple with violet, cassis, forest floors and subtle oak aroma backed by minerality and a bit herbaceousness. Took just a little bit breathing before it opened up. Even though a classic Pauillac with structural elements, fruits weren't all really there.  Its tannins and acidity are both average but balancing nevertheless. A very good quality for a wine but expected more as a Classed Growth from Pauillac from a legendary vintage. Drink now.

深暗紫色幾乎不透光,淡淡的黑醋栗、菸草、泥土與橡木加上礦物質與青草味。
花一點時間呼吸以後開始散放更多一點的花果味。 雖然是典型的波爾多Pauillac區帶有架構與平衡,算是很好的品質,但是對一瓶偉大年份的波爾多來說,其實可以更好。
