Batailley 2011 presents a deep garnet color, suggesting maturity and structure. On the nose, aromas of dark fruits like blackcurrant and plum emerge, accompanied by undertones of cedar, tobacco, and a hint of leather. The palate reveals a medium to full body with firm tannins and a refreshing acidity, offering flavours of ripe berries interwoven with earthy nuances and subtle spices.

Château Batailley is a fifth-growth estate located in the Pauillac region of Bordeaux. The 2011 vintage, characterized by a warm growing season, showcases a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, typical of the area. It was aged for 15 months in French oak barrels, which contributes to its complexity and depth. This vintage is noted for its balance and ability to develop further with time in the bottle.

A Rising Star in Pauillac

The historic Château Batailley is a Fifth Growth estate in the Pauillac appellation of Bordeaux. Situated on a plateau to the west of the First Growth of Mouton Rothschild, Batailley is one of the oldest chateaux in the Bordeaux region, dating from the 15th century.

In the past two decades, there has been a significant upturn in quality of the Château Batailley grand vin – a typical Left Bank Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant blend with Merlot and smaller proportions of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. The wine exhibits classic Pauillac character – concentrated flavour, good structure and ripe tannins.

Vinification at Château Batailley is conventional: grapes are de-stemmed and fermented in steel tanks. Malolactic fermentation takes place in both steel tanks and barrels, and the wine is matured barriques (about half of them new) for 16-18 months before bottling. Since 2014, Batailley has produced a second wine, Lions de Batailley, using grapes from younger vines on the 55ha estate. This wine is in a comparable style to the grand vin.
