Batailley is a fantastic wine with an excellent price/quality for a GRandcru from Pauillac, but it is a wine that you have to give some time, especially given the high proportion of Cabernet Sauvignoin.
The 2020 Chateau Batailey offers aromas of sweet blackcurrants mixed with notes of cloves, baking spices, vanilla pods and pencil shavings. Full yet tight and full of intense tannins, but they become soft and polished. Very classic structure. 70% cabernet sauvignon, 26% merlot, 2% petit verdot and 2% cabernet franc.

A strong effort for this Pauillac fifth growth, the 2020 Batailley offers up aromas of sweet blackcurrant fruit mingled with notes of cloves, baking spices, vanilla pod and pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, with good depth and concentration, its pure core of fruit is framed by powdery, youthfully assertive tannins.

Aromas of black and red currants as well as orange. Ink pot. Cassis bush. Bramble berry. Graphite. Full-bodied yet tight and back-loaded with intense tannins, but they turn soft and polished. Very classic structure. Reminds me of a top Batailley from the 1980s, like 1985, but much more precise and clear. 70% cabernet sauvignon, 26% merlot, 2% petit verdot, and 2% cabernet franc. Try after 2030.

From: Thrice Is Nice: Bordeaux 2020 in Bottle (Feb 2023)
The 2020 Haut-Batailley, matured in 60% new oak for 14 months, has a vivacious nose with mint-infused blackberry and raspberry fruit, a light pencil lead note underneath. Certainly one of the more intense aromatics in Pauillac with disarming purity. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins and a wonderful bead of acidity keeping it tensile throughout. There's a sweet core of plummy fruit, hints of orange rind towards the finish that contains plenty of energy. Excellent.
