  • Goedhuis Waddesdon, April 2026, Score: 92-94

    Quite a rich nose, shiny dark berries, cassis and a touch of sweet spice and liquorice, this is a very strong effort from Batailley in this vintage. Beautiful flow to the wine, caressing the palate with quite soft and layered tannins. A brilliant, pure streak of minerality cuts through the richly fruited palate, with a strong and long finish.

  • Neal Martin, May 2026, Score: 93-95

    The 2025 Batailley was picked between September 4 and 18 at around 26 hl/ha and is raised in 58% new oak barrels. It has a backward nose at first, opening with blackberry and crushed stone aromas, with a welcome whiff of the Gironde estuary underlying the fruit. Fine delineation and unashamedly classic in style. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy/chalky tannins, good density, fresh and saline, with a cohesive and you could say, "old school" finish. Very fine, very Bordeaux, very Batailley! Drink 2032-2058

  • Antonio Galloni, April 2026, Score: 95-97

    The 2025 Batailley marries power with finesse. Crème de cassis, new leather, spice, menthol and lavender caress the palate. The 2025 is quite deep and has great balance. This brooding, potent Pauillac has so much to offer. All it needs is time for the tannins to soften. Drink 2035-2065.

  • James Suckling, April 2026, Score: 95-96

    A focused and refined red with a linear profile, showing the precision that the acidity and fine-grained tannins bring to this cabernet blend. There is rigor but also underlying juiciness and sophistication. 78% cabernet sauvignon, 19% merlot and 3% petit verdot.

  • Jane Anson, April 2026, Score: 96

    Balanced and textural, restrained power with slow and steady unrolling. Floral nuances, crayon and graphite, crushed rocks, delicious, and full of appellation typicity. 58% new oak, Axel Marchal and Valerie Lavigne consultant winemakers.

Château Batailley

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.
