WINEMAKER'S NOTE
Ch. Batailley is one of our (and our customers') perennial favourites, and in<br/>2006 this is once again one of the best value wines in Bordeaux. It is<br/>quintessential Pauillac with layers of creamy, ripe blackcurrant and plum fruit<br/>and hints of mint. Batailley's 2006 is not a blockbuster but it is rich,<br/>generous and stylish for the vintage and should age extremely well. Another<br/>triumph from owner Philippe Castéja. Drink: 2012-2020.
