The wine
Beautifully smooth and elegant, showing classic cedar, sweet blackcurrant, raspberry coulis and fruitcake with smoky tobacco and liquorice. Abundant sweet tannins and full-bodied structure surround real depth and complexity. Old-school Pauillac from one of the best-value classed growths in the Médoc.
The producer
Château Batailley
View all Château Batailley winesChâteau Batailley is a Fifth Growth of the 1855 classification in Pauillac, named for a battle fought here during the Hundred Years War. Owned by the Casteja family, it is one of the most consistently well-priced classed growths in the Médoc, and one of the most traditional. Cabernet Sauvignon leads on classic Pauillac gravel, giving cedar, blackcurrant and real structure. Old-fashioned in the finest sense, and built for the cellar.
