A timeless pillar of Pauillac, between nobility and power

Located in the heart of the Pauillac appellation, Château Batailley is one of the oldest estates in the Médoc. Its name evokes a historical battle fought on these lands during the Hundred Years' War, a distant echo of the power struggles surrounding this prestigious terroir. Classified as a Fifth Grand Cru in 1855, this emblematic estate has embodied for nearly two centuries the refined elegance and solidity of the great wines of the left bank.

A noble terroir in the heart of the Médoc

Château Batailley benefits from an exceptional terroir of deep gravel on clay-gravel subsoils, ideal for expressing the full complexity of Cabernet Sauvignon, the king grape of Pauillac. The 60 hectares of contiguous vineyards offer a unique setting for precision viticulture, respecting natural balances.

The signature of a great Pauillac

The wines of Batailley are distinguished by their imposing structure, straightness, and remarkable aging potential. Over time, they develop deep aromas of blackcurrant, cedar, and graphite, with a noble and perfectly controlled tannic structure. It is a classic, sincere, and racy style that appeals to both traditional Bordeaux enthusiasts and discerning collectors.

A philosophy combining tradition and modernity

Since its acquisition by the Casteja family, also owners of Trottevieille and other Bordeaux jewels, the château has undergone gentle modernization, without ever renouncing its classic style. The winery was completely renovated in 2014, allowing for even more precise work, plot by plot. The pursuit of balance, finesse, and depth guides each vintage.
