Chateau Batailley
Château Batailley —
Grand Cru Classé from the heart of Pauillac
The name Château Batailley carries history within it: On this land in the Médoc, one of the last battles of the Hundred Years' War raged around 1453, in which France recaptured the neighboring Château Latour from the English—thus ending three centuries of English rule over Aquitaine. Around a hundred years later, in the 16th century, the first vines were planted here. The land on which history was written has borne wine ever since.
The estate's five-hectare park was designed in 1850 by Barillet-Deschamps, the garden architect of Napoleon III. Five years later, in the famous Bordeaux classification of 1855, Batailley's wines were awarded the rank of Grand Cru Classé — a classification that remains to this day and confirms the character of this Pauillac site.
The wines of Château Batailley showcase what makes Pauillac special: Cabernet Sauvignon on gravelly soils, structured and age-worthy, with the typical density of the Left Bank. No flashy style, but classic Médoc elegance — for red wine lovers who value depth over mere pleasingness.
