Château Batailley, a 5th Grand Cru Classé of the classification of 1855, is the family Castéja’s and Borie-Manoux’s flagship.

It is one of the oldest estates in the Médoc. The name is derived from the battle („bataille“) - that took place where the chateau and vineyard are today - during the 100-years war in the in 1452. In this battle, the French re-conquered the neighbouring Chateau Latour from the English, a crucial point in the history of Aquitaine. A few years later the first vines were planted on this historical and blood soaked grounds. Chateau Batailley’s garden was designed by Barillet-Deschamps, Napoleon III’s garden architect. In 1855 Napoleon III created the classification for the Grands Crus Classés of the Medoc. And Batailley was knighted Grand Cru.

Batailley is an intensive typical Pauillac, with Cassis and very good structure. Very stable quality across the vintages due to the very old Wines.

Balailley酒莊是1855年第五大級酒莊，是Castéja's和Borie-Manoux的旗艦。

這是梅多克最古老的莊園之一。 這個名字來源於戰爭（“巴塔耶”） - 發生在今天的城堡和葡萄園，在1452年的100年戰爭中。在這場戰鬥中，法國人重新征服了鄰國拉圖堡 英語是阿基坦歷史上的一個關鍵點。 幾年之後，第一批葡萄種植在這個歷史悠久，血淋淋的土地上。 巴塔利（Chateau Batailley）的花園由拿破崙三世（Napoleon III）的花園建築師巴里勒 - 德尚（Barillet-Deschamps）設計。 1855年，拿破崙三世創立了梅多克的“大特級”的分類。 而巴塔利則被冠以Grand Cru。

Batailley是一個密集的典型的波亞克，與卡西斯和非常好的結構。 由於非常陳舊的葡萄酒，所以葡萄酒的質量非常穩定。

Tasting Notes 酒評
A strong effort from this Philippe Casteja estate, the dark ruby/purple color, sweet creme de cassis fruit, creamy mouthfeel, excellent purity, light tannins, attractive fruit and very good texture make the medium-bodied 2013 Batailley a successful effort in this tough vintage. Enjoy it over the next 7-8 years.

這款來自菲利普·卡斯特哈酒莊的佳釀表現出色，深寶石紅/紫色的酒體，散發著甜美的黑醋栗果香，口感柔滑，純淨度極佳，單寧輕柔，果味迷人，質地優良，酒體中等，2013年份的巴塔耶葡萄酒在這個艱難的年份中脫穎而出。建議未來7-8年內享用。
