This is linear and tight with blue fruit and fine tannins. Some graphite and lead pencil, too. Medium to full body with very Pauillac sensibility. Delicate, yet structured. Restrained. Needs time to open. 76% cabernet sauvignon. Try after 2026.
94 Vinous
The 2019 Haut-Batailley, matured in 60% new oak for 14 months, has a tensile, well-defined bouquet, linear and focused (much more so than last year from barrel), featuring blackberry, briar, that same tincture of blood orange and a hint of cedar. The palate is silky-smooth on the entry and very cohesive and harmonious. Though there is a little new oak to be subsumed, that will happen over the next 2–3 years. Showing great depth and composure on the finish, this is a wonderful Pauillac that will give 30 or 40 years of drinking pleasure.

A fine effort from this cru classé located between Lynch-Bages, Forts de Latour and Pichon Lalande, the 2019 Haut-Batailley offers up aromas of minty berries, loamy soil, violets, cedar and spices, followed by a medium to full-bodied, succulent palate with a pretty core of fruit, lively acids and powdery structuring tannins. This is the second vintage produced by the Cazes family since their acquisition of the château in 2017.
93 Wine Spectator
Offers red and black currant, plum and blackberry preserve flavors that are both lush and brambly in feel, a contrast that plays out on a finish in which a bolt of cast iron and a twinge of warm earth check in. Features a lovely savory/cedar echo at the very end, giving it a slight throwback feel. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best from 2023 through 2038. — JM

Château Haut Batailley
Relativamente nuovo arrivato sulla scena di Bordeaux, Château Haut-Batailley faceva storicamente parte di Château Batailley, una delle più antiche e più grandi tenute di Pauillac. Proprietaria della tenuta Batailley dal 1931, la famiglia Borie sostanzialmente gestiva la proprietà già molto prima di quella data, a partire dalla fine degli anni '60 del 1800. Nel 1942 la famiglia decise di dividere la tenuta di Batailley per evitare futuri problemi di eredità. La proprietà fu divisa in due parti: il figlio Marcel ebbe la quota maggiore, completa di edificio e appellativo, Château Batailley, mentre la parte rimanente della tenuta passò al figlio François, con il nome di Château Haut-Batailley. Oggi Haut-Batailley rimane sotto la guida della famiglia Borie, insieme a Château Grande-Puy-Lacoste e Château Ducru-Beaucaillou. Classificata come Cinquième Grand Cru Classé, la tenuta di 22 ettari produce vini sinuosi e sofisticati. Haut-Batailley è un assemblaggio armonioso di Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot e Cabernet Franc.
