Château Haut Batailley Pauillac

The terroir around Pauillac has been shaped by the hand of man for millennia, especially along the river. The area of Pauillac as we know it today was created when two former parishes, Saint-Martin de Pauillac and Saint-Lambert de Rignac, whose respective lords were Lafite and Latour, were joined together. The wines from these two municipalities have always belonged to the elite of the Médoc from the Middle Ages to the present day, whether they were domain wines or simple bourgeois wines.

This red wine is a classic and very characteristic Pauillac with aromas of cassis, blackberries, and vanilla. Powerful wine with a beautiful structure and a long finish.

The Haut-Batailley is stored for 16-18 months for maturation in oak barrels.

The Château

Château Batailley

The name Batailley comes from the "battle" that raged on this soil during the Hundred Years' War around the year 1453, and where the chateau of the same name and its vineyards are located today.

In the battle, the French recaptured the adjacent Chateau Latour from the English. It was a decisive moment for the final end of the 300-year English rule in Aquitaine.

Exactly one hundred years later, in the 16th century, the first vines were planted in the historic soil. The 5-hectare park of Chateau Batailley was designed in 1850 by Barillet-Deschamps, the architects of Napoleon III. In 1855, the Batailley wines received Grand Crus Classé status under the classification made by Napoleon.
