Château Barde-Haut 2023

The 2023 Barde-Haut is a powerful, dense wine from Saint-Émilion’s Saint-Christophe-des-Bardes sector. Ample and resonant, the 2023 wraps the palate in blue/purplish berry fruit, mocha, spice and new leather. There’s terrific breadth here. Drinking window: 2027-2043. (Antonio Galloni,vinous.com)
