Drinking Beautifully Now
Written By Sarah Kemp

Château Batailley 2009, Pauillac

Hard to beat in terms of (relative) value and pleasure if you want a classified Pauillac that is ready to drink right now. Plenty of classic cassis and bilberry black fruits combined with cedar, eucalyptus, spice and slate. Nothing too severe or serious, this is a crowd-pleaser that maintains its appellation’s typicity.

Price £47.00 – £66.00
