The 2018 Barde-Haut has a vibrant bouquet with blackberry, raspberry preserve, briary and crushed rock, very perfumed and pure. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy black fruit, fine acidity, white pepper and a touch of fennel combining beautifully. A little savoriness comes through on the finely proportioned finish. Excellent. Tasted at the Barde-Haut vertical at the château. (Neal Martin, Vinous, June 2022)

This needed a firm decant. Has a dept of fruit to it, some forest floor, stoniness, cedar, coffee and florality. Still not showing all the elements it’s capable off. I think it’s in there but needs much more time to fully integrate. Drink from 2028. (90-94)
