The 2011s are starting to show nicely, and the 2011 Château Barde-Haut has lots to love, with notes of dried herbs, saddle leather, tobacco, and loamy soil. I love its complexity, and it's medium to full-bodied on the palate, has good concentration, a touch of the dry tannin that's common in the vintage, and outstanding length. Drink bottles over the coming decade.
