Description
Château Haut Batailley is situated at the entrance to the Pauillac appellation, and a large tower "La Tour l'Aspic" stands on the terroir, which is directly opposite Château Batailley and touches Château Grand Puy Lacoste and the St Julien appellation. The Cazes family, who are at the helm of Château Lynch-Bages, are the proud new owners of Château Haut-Batailley, a Grand Cru Classé from 1855 in Pauillac, previously owned by the Brest-Borie family.
The 2022 Haut-Batailley bursts with aromas of mint, loam, violets, cedar and spice, followed by a medium to full, juicy palate with a lovely core of fruit, lively acidity and powdery, structuring tannins. The 2019 vintage is a blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Merlot. This is the fifth vintage produced by the Cazes family since purchasing the chateau in 2017. This is without doubt a rising star and a wine that will command a strong premium in the coming years, especially with the 2022 already receiving such high ratings from the international wine press.
