Chateau Batailley releases

Tuesday 11 May 2010 written by Majestic Wine Team in Company News

Finally an en primeur release of one of the top wines, one that we are very confident about and unhesitatingly recommend. Chateau Batailley is an archetypal Pauillac – blackcurrant-scented with a fresh mid-weight character. Key to its attraction is this freshness. It is a drink rather than an academic exercise after all.

To view all the wines currently released visit our en primeur offer at Lay & Wheeler.

2009 Château Batailley, Cru Classé Pauillac
£264 per 12 bottle case in bond
On the nose, a lifted, floral edge lends appeal to dark berry fruit. A more concentrated Batailley than the norm, this vintage offers good, solid berry fruit, soft-skinned and fully ripe. Not lacking in substance, with a pleasing vibrant accent and well-expressed tannin. A successful, persistent Batailley in a classic style.  Drinking: 2015-2025

(Scored 90-92 points in Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate #188)
