Note di degustazione
The 2011 Batailley has a strict, fresh, graphite tinged bouquet with more fruité than its peers, very well defined and focused. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain tannins, taut and linear, very good tension here with that vein of graphite running through to the finish. Classy. Tasted blind at the annual 10-Year-On tasting.

Tasted blind. Rather weak crimson with a weak rim. Light but well-mannered nose and really rather classically styled claret on the palate. Quite a bit of alcohol but otherwise no excesses – apart from quite marked tannins and light dustiness on the end. (JR)
Tasted blind. Smoky lead pencils on the nose. Round and easy. Hint of gaminess. (JR)
Informazioni sul produttore
It was on the site of Batailley in 1453 that one of the final battles (or “batailles”) of the Hundred Years’ War took place. Today owned by the Castéja family, the Fifth Growth is renowned for producing wine that is the epitome of classic Claret.
