  • Goedhuis, April 2014, Score: 87-89

    This predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon blend (92%) is a very attractive example of the vintage. Whilst not excessively powerful it is rounded and bright with appealing fresh cherry fruits on the finish.

  • Neal Martin, April 2014, Score: 89-91

    The Grand Vin has the highest proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend: 94%, augmented by 2% Petit Verdot and 4% Merlot cropped at 33hl/ha. It has a pure, well-defined bouquet with blackcurrant, fresh strawberry and cedar that is tightly enmeshed with the oak. The palate is medium-bodied with a soft, almost understated opening. There are pleasant tobacco and dried herb notes infusing the black fruit and whilst the finish does not possess the structure of recent vintages, it expresses the Cabernet fruit with aplomb and there is something easy drinking, almost languid on the finish (not meant in a pejorative sense.) Fine.

  • Robert Parker, August 2014, Score: 88-91

    A strong effort from this Philippe Casteja estate, the dark ruby/purple color, sweet creme de cassis fruit, creamy mouthfeel, excellent purity, light tannins, attractive fruit and very good texture make the medium-bodied 2013 Batailley a successful effort in this tough vintage. Enjoy it over the next 7-8 years. Drink: 2014 - 2022.

  • Decanter, April 2014, Score: 88

    Dense colour, quite meaty Cabernet fruit with some florality and lift, nice earthiness on the palate, good Pauillac. Drink: 2017-2025

  • Jancis Robinson, April 2014, Score: 16.5

    Sweet fruit, but with a very slight herbal edge to give a savoury twist. Dry, furry texture, but plenty of refreshing acidity to balance. Nicely made – not too ambitious, but offers lots of drinking pleasure. (RH)

Known historically as one of the "forgotten" châteaux of the Médoc, Château Batailley is also one with great potential. Owned by the Castéja family, Batailley has been managed by Borie-Manoux, a leading Bordelais négociant, since the 1960s. For many years it was not traded amongst traditional Bordeaux circles which contributed to its lesser known stature. This has changed only over the past couple of years. For some time now, Château Batailley has represented one of the best values in Bordeaux. Traditional and stylish, it often embodies the quintessential Pauillac spirit offering distinguished aromas of cedar box, and cassis enveloped in a finely structured yet fresh palate.Read less

Region

Pauillac

Due south of St Estèphe lies the appellation of Pauillac, the king of Left Bank communes. It is home to three first growths as well as a plethora of other classified growths. Pauillac's renowned well-draining, gravelly soils enable its dominant grape Cabernet Sauvignon to reach fantastic heights of complexity and concentration. As a result, Pauilac's wines tend to be full-bodied with compact tannins and good freshness. Its aromatics are often what one associates with classic Bordeaux: pencil shavings, black currant and occasional mint. Some of the most famous châteaux of the commune are Latour, Mouton Rothschild, Lafite Rothschild, Pichon Baron, Pichon Lalande and Lynch Bages.
