Haut Batailley, Verso - Pauillac 2019

Château Haut-Batailley marks the entrance into the vineyard of Pauillac with the iconic Aspic tower that dominates the estate.
The estate is a classified growth, included in the Bordeaux Wine Official Classification of 1855. Until 1942, Haut-Batailley’s history was linked with that of its neighbour, Batailley, after which they parted ways.
In 2017, a new and exciting chapter under the Cazes family of Châteaux Lynch-Bages and Ormes de Pez began…

The vineyard extends over forty hectares on soils of deep Garonne gravel. 22 hectares are currently in production. When the Cazes family took over, 19 hectares of land with planting rights within AOC Pauillac had not been planted (they were never reinstated after Phylloxera). In 2018, following an in-depth study of the terroirs, an extensive planting programme was carried out. Particularly representative of the Pauillac appellation, grapes are currently Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot.

Haut-Batailley Verso, the second wine of the property, displays freshness, aromatic depth and elegance, and can be enjoyed from its early years onwards.
