Cellar Tracker September - 2023
Cellar Tracker
This pours medium garnet with medium bricking. The nose is immediately expressive and appealing with green tobacco leaf, sundried tomato, dried dark cherry, sweet cedar, charcoal, and dried black currants. The palate is a touch thin, opening on red current, turning to medium minus tannin and medium plus acid. The finish closes quite gravelly and lightly green with a kiss of tobacco. All in all this is a very nice showing and a lovely old bottle. Quite an appealing wine to drink. Despite the mid-shoulder fill this is very alive and intact. The 1975 vintage plays a part in retaining notable tannin, but better managed than some other '75s I've had. Better than the 75 Haut Batailley consumed a few weeks back.

Château Batailley
Château Batailley

Château Batailley is a Bordeaux wine estate. In the Pauillac AOC, it is classified as a 5th Grand Cru Classé in the official 1855 Médoc wine classification, and is one of the jewels of the Castéja family and Borie-Manoux. The name of this property comes from the word Battle which took place in 1453 on the vineyards and the Château. This was the Hundred Years' War.

During this war, the French recaptured Château Latour, which was occupied by the English and marked the end of British rule in Aquitaine. In the 17th century, vines were planted on these historically rich lands. The Château's park was designed in the 19th century by Barillet-Deschamps, Napoleon III's landscape architect. Château Batailley is a classic Pauillac, with a dark ruby color, well-structured and pronounced blackcurrant notes.

The best vintages of Château Batailley are 1959, 1982. The 2000 vintage and the 2009 wines are excellent. Finally, the 1990 grand crus classés and 2005 grand crus are particularly exceptional.
