Chateau Haut Batailley Pauillac

Size: 750ML

Long owned by Xavier Borie this Pauillac estate sits next to Batailley and is just south of Borie’s other famous chateau Grand-Puy-Lacoste. The 2012 dramatically better from bottle than barrel is bigger boned richer and more flamboyant than this wine normally tends to be. The color is a healthy purple and the wine offers plenty of cassis and licorice as well as a touch of incense. The oak from barrel-aging 18 months is largely obscured. Medium to full-bodied and impressively endowed it comes off like a hypothetic blend of a St.-Julien and Pauillac but this is a classic 2012 that is full rich and impressive with beautifully sweet tannins. Drink it over the next 20 years. – Robert Parker The Wine Advocate
