Description

"Following my previous encounter with the 1995 Haut Batailley, I was optimistic about its maturation in bottle. When François-Xavier Borie poured an example following a vertical at Grand Puy-Lacoste...well, that view was vindicated. This is perhaps an unheralded wine of a strong vintage. It has a generous bouquet with vibrant red berry fruit that cocks a snook at the 2000 Haut Batailley that was poured alongside. Mulberry and leather at first,undergrowth emerging with time. The palate might be a little smudged on the entry but there is impressive weight and concentration,superb balance and real structure on the finish to suggest that it will give 20+ years of pleasure. This is worth seeking out at its secondary market prices and probably more attractive than many of its peers.Drink 2016-2035".

Neal Martin. (The Wine Advocate. #231. June 2017).


"Wonderful aromas of citrus fruit, blackberry and currant. Full-bodied, with Port-like flavors and chewy tannins. Super well-structured. Needs time to come together".
(92 Points).

James Suckling. (The Wine Spectator. June 2007).


"Tasted in a blind horizontal in September 2000. Another wonderful 1995. Dense compact nose of morello cherries, dates and chocolate. Dense multi-layered palate with depth complexity and class. Firm tannins. Harmonious and well-integrated. A wonderful wine for the vintage".
(90-92 Points).

Neal Martin. (The Wine Journal. September 2000).


Two more recent tasting notes on Cellartracker:-

"This was really enjoyable and in a good place right now. After a 4 hour decant this wine was singing. One person at dinner declared this wine to be her favorite...even though there was a 2002 Merus, a lovely 2015 Cote Rotie, and some other gems there. Not showing some of the toughness that 95s can often show. Excellent stuff!".
(91 Points).

BLAIR CURTIS. (Cellartracker. 5/1/2019).


"This wine took 20 minutes to open and then was wonderful, among the best clarets I have had in some time. I think it has some life left, a couple years at least. Unfortunately, I am running out. Sigh".
(94 Points).
