Ch. Batailley 2008, Pauillac   巴塔葉堡(五級酒莊)

巴塔葉酒莊位於波爾多左岸的波雅克村，1855年被評為”五級酒莊”。巴塔葉酒莊是波雅克村最古老的酒莊之一，酒莊葡萄園的土質為梅多克典型的沙礫土質，有良好的排水性和保溫作用。葡萄種植比例為70% Cabernet Sauvignon、25% Merlot、3% Cabernet Franc 和2% Petit Verdot，平均樹齡為30年。

所有葡萄手工採摘之後會經過逐粒挑選，放入不銹鋼桶中進行控溫發酵，乳酸發酵一部分在不銹鋼桶中進行，一部分在橡木桶中進行，但所有的酒都在橡木桶中進行成熟，持續16個月的時間，新橡木桶比例為60%。

深紫色,淡淡的木香及甘草香,黑醋栗和甜櫻桃的特點體現在這款優雅的酒中、中等至濃郁的酒體、令人驚訝的豐富變化。

The 2008, which was harvested between October 2-15, is a blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot, and 3% Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. It exhibits Batailley’s well-known tannic profile, but the high level of polyphenols in this vintage equates to sweet tannins and no astringency whatsoever. A deep purple color is followed by sweet aromas of creme de cassis, forest floor, damp earth, licorice, and a subtle hint of wood. Part of the Batailley vineyard is only 800 meters from the St.-Julien border, but this is a classic Pauillac. The 2008 should be drinkable in 4-5 years, and last for 25-30. ---摘自Wine Advocate
