A wine with extremely integrated fruit-tannin balance, with berry, currant and mineral character. it'sso polished and pretty. Full body, juicy fruit and a fresh finish. Needs five to six years of age to soften.

Tasted at a vertical tasting at the Chateau. The 2011 Haut Batailley has an open and expressive bouquet with blackberry and crushed stone not as vibrant or displaying the same contrast as the 2012, but that powdered stone develops nicely in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin and satisfying fruit concentration. This is a more elegant Haut-Batailley, without the weight and concentration of the previous two vintages, but offering finesse and composure on the finish. You could actually drink this now, but it will give another 15-18 years of pleasure. Tasted July 2016.
