Note di degustazione
Batailley 2025 is a clear success. Deep ruby in colour, with lifted violet notes and a classic Pauillac profile of blackcurrant, blackberry, cedar and well-integrated oak. The palate is full-bodied and balanced, with persistent tannins that will need a few years in bottle to fully harmonise. A blend of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot, this is a serious, ageworthy Batailley and, once again, one of the most compelling value propositions in Pauillac. A wine that should give great satisfaction to Bordeaux lovers and collectors alike.

The 2025 Batailley was picked between September 4 and 18 at around 26 hl/ha and is raised in 58% new oak barrels. It has a backward nose at first, opening with blackberry and crushed stane aromas, with a welcome whiff of the Gironde estuary underlying the fruit. Fine delineation and unashamedly classic in style. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy/chalky tannins, good density, fresh and saline, with a cohesive and you could say, "old school" finish. Very fine, very Bordeaux, very Batailley!
Cigar box, tobacco, smoke, flowers, and currants define the aromatic profile. On the palate, the wine is vibrant, juicy, fresh, and fruity. The creamy finish lingers, allowing you to savor the elegance and freshness of the sweet fruits. Give it a few years before opening a bottle, and enjoy over the following 2-3 decades. The wine is a blend of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Merlot, and 3% Petit Verdot. 13.5% ABV. Harvesting took place September 4-September 19. Yields were 30 hectoliters per hectare.

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.
