Dark cassis and redcurrant fruit pour from the glass of Chateau Batailley 2016, laced with floral lift, cedar, tobacco leaf and a touch of mocha. On the palate it feels powerful yet composed, packed with ripe blackcurrant and plum over finely chiselled tannins that promise a long, graceful evolution. Classic, slightly old-school Pauillac character runs through the long, savory finish.
Roast rib of beef; Lamb shoulder with rosemary and garlic; Dry-aged duck breast with red wine jus

Château Batailley is the estate’s flagship grand vin, a classic Pauillac and Cinquième Grand Cru Classé crafted primarily from Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and a touch of Petit Verdot, grown on deep gravel soils at the southwestern tip of the appellation. Typically dark, structured and ageworthy, it shows Pauillac’s hallmark cassis, graphite and tobacco notes wrapped in firm but polished tannins, offering a powerful yet refined expression of Médoc terroir that can evolve gracefully for decades.
