2009 Ch. Batailley, Pauillac

Ch. Batailley, Pauillac
Brilliant, vibrant, with an almost electric precision on both the nose and palate, Ch. Batailley’s 2009 is quite amazing! It has great poise and elegance with lovely fresh blackcurrants on the nose and fine raspberry and blackberry fruit on the palate, mingling harmoniously with an earthy minerality. This is a powerhouse, with an underlying sophistication and presence suggesting to me this is going to be a legendary Batailley. Glorious!
(Simon Staples, BBR Sales & Marketing Director)Château Batailley

Batailley was always seen as a reliable , well-priced claret , but recent innovations in the cellar have created more polished , elegant wines but without shedding any of its Pauillac typicity . This is a glorious wine , with lush, dense fruit yet blessed with masses of ripe tannin to ensure a long life.

Bright crimson. Pretty deep. Succulent and sumptuous on the nose. Lots of sweetness. Just a little attenuated but should deliver satisfaction eventually!

Ch. Batailley, Pauillac
The finest Batailley I have had in many years, the dense purple-colored 2009 exhibits a boatload of tannin as well as sweet, caramelized, black currant fruit intermixed with hints of charcoal, cedarwood and smoke, a full-bodied mouthfeel and the aforementioned high, but sweet, well-integrated tannin displaying no jaggedness. Batailley often requires considerable patience as it can be one of the longest-lived Pauillacs. Atypically for Batailley, the 2009 should be ready to drink in 5-7 years and keep for three decades.

Currant and blackberry on the nose, with hints of toasted oak. Full-bodied, with big, chewy tannins. This is the biggest Batailley in years. Lots of improvement here.
