  March 4, 2023 - What an incredible surprise given the CT ratings. The best Batailley I have ever drunk, better than 95, 96 or 2000. Very classic old school Bordeaux. Fantastic mature nose of horse stables, forest floor, wild strawberries and dried fruits. Same for the palate. Tannins almost completely resolved. Medium to long finish with a broad, mainly tertiary spectrum of flavours. This is why I love matured Bordeaux.

  March 10, 2018 - Still very drinkable, bottle with good fill. Little brownish on the rim, tertiary aromas, some leather, tar and fall leaves. Classic Bordeaux, but fading away now...

  September 1, 2017 - Good levels VTS. Good bottle from a serous source. Light red colour. Needed some air. Not unpleasant to drink. Seems ways past its prime.

  May 14, 2016 - Sliten, litt flat, sannsynligvis over toppen. Svak mørk frukt, lite syre.
