WS 90-93Cory Gowan, JJ Buckley, April 2012
60% cabernet sauvignon and 40% merlot planted on 40 hectares of gravelly clay subsoil. Aged for 15-18 months in 50% new oak barrels. Sylvain Garcin Cathiard has owned Haut-Bergey since 1991, and has really elevated the quality, giving it the same treatment used at the family's other chateaux. Very chocolaty and rich on the nose and the palate, this has a nice soft entry with baking spice flavor in the mid-palate providing some complexity to accompany black cherry flavors. Fine tannins give this admirable length. Tasted twice. Enjoy 2014-2020.

Showing spicy wood with firm, black-currant tannins and gentle fruit, this wine is rounded, soft and accessible. - R.V.

This has good depth and polish, with pure, ripe blackberry and black currant fruit laced with roasted tobacco leaf, bay and iron notes. Shows solid grip through the finish.-J.M.
