Note di degustazione
A solid, undeniable success, the 2021 Château Barde-Haut has a healthy ruby hue as well as medium-bodied aromas and flavors of red and black fruits, chalky minerality, sappy flowers, and underbrush, with a beautiful, almost Pomerol-like damp earth and meatiness. Balanced and elegant, it has fine tannins, nicely integrated acidity, and outstanding length. Give it a few years and enjoy over the following 10-15.

The 2021 Barde Haut has a very composed bouquet with black cherries, blueberry and touches of melted tar—well-defined and focused. This has retained the elegance than I discerned out of barrel. The palate is medium-bodied with quite a peppery entry, fine acidity and good balance, showing modest concentration toward the briny finish. It tapers just a little shorter than anticipated but is still a well-crafted, classically styled Saint-Émilion.
The 2021 Barde-Haut is laced with black cherry, plum, mocha, spice, new leather and tobacco. This soft, juicy Saint-Émilion is supple full of near- and medium-term appeal. It’s a fine effort from Hélène Garcin and Patrice Lévêque in this very challenging vintage.
One of the more structured wines from this talented family, the 2021 Château Barde-Haut offers a beautiful perfume of both red and blue fruits as well as lots of minerality, chocolate, and graphite. It has medium-bodied richness, some chalky tannins, terrific balance, and a great finish. Based on 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, brought up in 50% new French oak, it's unquestionably going to be an outstanding Saint-Emilion that will have 15 years of prime drinking.
