Chateau Barde-Haut 2019 1.5L Magnum

Château Barde-Haut is a distinguished Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé estate known for its full-bodied, rich, and balanced Merlot-dominant wines. It is a south-facing, 17-hectare vineyard with clay-limestone soils, primarily planted with Merlot (around 80%) and Cabernet Franc (around 20%). The resulting wines are characterized by deep color, expressive aromas of dark fruits, spices, and floral notes, and a long, refined finish with velvety tannins. 

96 Points - James Suckling

Attractive black-fruit and berry character with some chocolate and toasted-hazelnut undertones. It’s full-bodied with chewy tannins and a juicy finish. Lots of flavor. Lots of polish. 80% merlot and 20% cabernet franc.

94 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2019 Barde-Haut comes skipping out of the glass with bright, cheery black plums, Morello cherries, black raspberries and mulberries scents plus suggestions of dusty soil, cinnamon stick, pencil shavings and lavender. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has wonderful energy, with a lively line of freshness and well-played, rounded tannins, finishing with an invigorating lift.
