Château Haut-Ballet 2009

Château Haut-Ballet 2009

Canon-Fronsac|Red wine

The wines of Château Haut-Ballet are the result of the combination of pure limestone terroir (on the quarries of Saint-Michel-de-Fronsac) and a single grape variety, Merlot. This 2009 vintage is intense and full-bodied, with beautiful aromas of red fruit and remarkable oakiness. A must-try from the Libourne region!
