justerini & brooks tasting note

Haut Batailley 2024 offers an expressive bouquet with a pleasing floral lift and bright fruit character, leading to a taut palate displaying detailed, juicy fruit. Clear, transparent, with good definition and precision, supported by grippy, yet well-integrated tannins. Culminates with notes of graphite, blackcurrants, and black cherry. A classy, linear style.

critic reviews

94/100Neal Martin,Vinous

The 2016 Haut-Batailley was tasted from two bottles, the first showing a touch of TCA. The second has an airy and well-defined bouquet of blackberry, graphite and subtle floral aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-boned tannins and very classic in style, displaying impressive grip. I appreciate the substance toward the finish, and the pencil lead lingering on the aftertaste. This is an outstanding Haut-Batailley. Tasted blind at the Southwold tasting.
