Tasted blind. Mid garnet. Pretty leafy on the nose. And a bit stalky on the palate. Lightish overall so that the alcohol shows. Slightly tart on the finish. (JH)

76% Cabernet Sauvignon 24% Merlot. Ripe, juicy cassis, sappy oak but well integrated. Finely ground tannin that really grips the finish. Fine, traditional Pauillac, with lovely balance and good persistence. (RH)

The 2013 Haut Batailley wraps around the palate with lovely depth and nuance. A layered, resonant wine, the 2013 impresses for its depth and overall balance. Black cherry, plum, dark spices and menthol add the final layers of complexity on the nuanced finish. This is a gorgeous wine with tons of near and medium-term appeal.

The Cazes family – owners of Lynch-Bages and Ormes de Pez – purchased Haut-Batailley in 2017. They’ve embarked on a significant replanting programme, and exciting things are likely to come from this address with its new backing.
