2019 | Chateau Haut Batailley | Chateau Haut Batailley

the 2019 Château Haut-Batailley offers up a gorgeous array of red and black currants, black raspberries, tobacco, and flowers, with more classic lead pencil and tobacco notes emerging with time in the glass.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: A fine effort from this cru classé located between Lynch-Bages, Forts de Latour and Pichon Lalande, the 2019 Haut-Batailley offers up aromas of minty berries, loamy soil, violets, cedar and spices, followed by a medium to full-bodied, succulent palate with a pretty core of fruit, lively acids and powdery structuring tannins. This is the second vintage produced by the Cazes family since their acquisition of the château in 2017.

• James Suckling: This is linear and tight with blue fruit and fine tannins. Some graphite and lead pencil, too. Medium to full body with very Pauillac sensibility. Delicate, yet structured. Restrained. Needs time to open. 76% cabernet sauvignon.

Producer Information

Château Haut-Batailley is a wine estate in the Pauillac appellation in the Médoc area, north of Bordeaux city and on the left bank of the Garonne estuary. It is one of 18 estates with the status of Fifth Growth, awarded from the 1855 classification of Bordeaux. The château building, which is constructed in an almost rustic, Basque style, sits at the southwestern end of the appellation area, roughly two kilometers (1.2 miles) or so due west of Château Latour and Château Pichon Longueville-Baron. The estate was once a part of the larger, neighboring, Château Batailley which sits just to the north of Haut-Batailley. Batailley was bought in 1932 by the brothers François and Marcel Borie, who divided it in two in 1942 to avoid conflict in inheritance. François took the smaller property that did not include the physical château and named the estate Haut-Batailley. He increased the size of the estate by buying vineyards, including purchases of plots in 1951 from the Fourth Growth Château Duhart-Milon.
