Producer Profile

Producer Profile

Chateau Haut-Batailley

One of those increasingly rare classified Médoc chateaux that has been still offers impressive value for money. Fruit has been plumped up in recent years, while still retaining its classic taste profile of elegance and firm black fruits – a little lighter in style than some of its Pauillac neighbours.

Chateau Haut-Batailley is located next door to Chateau Batailley, and the two properties were once part of the same estate (in fact a fairly recent split, dating back only to 1942, ten years after two Borie brothers, Marcel and Francois, bought Batailley), As just 22 hectares, it is fairly modest for a Pauillac 1855 Fifth Growth estate – when the two brothers decided to split the Batailley estate to safeguard future succession issues, Francois received the smaller part, augmented by a purchase of more vines in the 1950s but still not rivalling the 58 hectares at Batailley itself.. Today it is owned by François-Xavier Borie, grandson of the original.

Borie has been at the estate since 1978 with his wife Marie Helene, splitting his time between Haut Batailley and his other Pauillac property, Grand Puy Lacoste. Planted to 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot and 3% Cabernet Franc, the vines are split between two areas, one on the Bages plateau, and the other close to the property itself. Sustainable agriculture is practised, with no herbicide use in the vines since the mid 1990s, and no pesticides for over approaching six years. In the cellars, precise plot-by-plot fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, with help from consultant Eric Boissenot. Production in most years is between 100,000 and 110,000 bottles, depending on the vintage, aged for 18 months in French oak barrels (40-55% new).
