The opulence and structure of an exceptional Pauillac wine
The property
The name of the Château Batailley refers to the Hundred Years War, a battle of which was fought in 1453 on the lands of the estate. Château Batailley became a wine estate from the 17th century. This 5th Classified Growth in 1855 is produced in the Pauillac appellation, on the left bank of Bordeaux.
The vineyard
Château Batailley is a Pauillac wine from a 60-hectare vineyard, with vines planted on soils made up of siliceous and gravel.
The vintage
After a difficult start to the year marked by a very rainy spring and a strong cryptogamic pressure due to mildew in July, the beautiful summer that followed with radiant sun for 4 months allowed for an ideal maturity of the grape varieties. The harvest thus spread from September 18 to October 9 with grapes whose quality suggested the birth of an extraordinary vintage.
Blend
Cabernet sauvignon (74%), merlot (23%) and petit verdot (3%).
