Château Haut-Batailley: Vineyards
The vineyards of Château Haut-Batailley lie to the east of the D206, which runs southwest out of Pauillac. For the appellation in question this is quite peripheral; the boundary with St Julien is located just a few hundred metres south of the château. Unsurprisingly, the estate’s nearest neighbour is Château Batailley itself, which lies just around the corner from Château Haut-Batailley, on the aforementioned D206.
Most of the vineyards, which also include those around Château Couronne, a petit château which came to François Borie in 1932, sit around the château. Of note, just to the east is the Petit-Batailley vineyard which belongs to Château Latour, which is largely utilised for that estate’s second wine, Les Forts de Latour.
