expert's opinions
Evolved, deep and slightly translucent blackish-red color with a slightly maroon hue. The nose feels somewhat evolved, slightly rustic and a bit funky with a classic Bordeaux bouquet of wizened blackcurrants and leathery funk, some woody notes of pencil shavings, a little bit of horse stable aroma, light plummy nuances, a hint of minty greenness and a touch of mushroomy earth. The wine feels evolved, silky and savory on the palate with a full body and complex flavors of leathery funk , game and meaty umami, some wizened blackcurrants, a little bit of tobacco, light sweet notes of ripe dark plums, a hint of minty greenness and a touch of licorice root. The structure relies more on the rather high acidity than on the supple and rather resolved medium tannins. The finish is long, savory and gently grippy with a complex, dark-toned aftertaste of wizened dark fruits and dried blackcurrants, some tobacco, a little bit of game, light woody notes of pencil shavings, a hint of minty greenness and a touch of leafy forest floor. A beautiful, somewhat rustic and wonderfully evolved Pauillac that is now on its plateau of maturity. Most likely the wine will keep for years, but it won't evolve any further, so there's no real need to age the wine any further. There's some tertiary complexity which will only increase with additional aging, so you might want to drink the wine while it still retains some of that fruity complexity. Highly recommended.

Dark red colour. Medium intensity. Vivid. Nose of medium intensity. Fruity with a hint of merlot and a fine, lightly aromatic oak. Round, fruity palate, rather tender for a Pauillac. Round tannins and a vanilla, finely oaked finish.

Château informations
Château Haut-Batailley is a Bordeaux wine estate of 22 hectares located in Pauillac in Gironde. It produces Fifth Classified Growths in the 1855 Médoc classification.
The estate was purchased by the Borie family, who also own Châteaux Grand-Puy-Lacoste and Ducru-Beaucaillou. Currently managed by François-Xavier Borie, the wine is aged for 16 to 20 months in oak barrels, partially new (30 to 40% depending on the year). The second wine is called Château La Tour L'Aspic.
