Lot 358 Details
CHÂTEAU LÉOVILLE BARTON 2000

Saint-Julien. 2ième Cru Classé
u. 3 x bn. 1 x marked label.

Wonderfully sweet cedar and fruitcake notes are intermixed with hints of creme de cassis, licorice, and earthy forest floor. It is full-bodied and tannic, with everything in place, but like so many wines that come from Leoville Barton, it makes a mockery of many modern-day consumers wanting a wine for immediate gratification. Those who bought it should continue to exercise patience and be proud to own a wonderful classic with five decades of longevity ahead of it. June 2010 Drink: 2018-2050 WA 95+

3 bts.    per lot $600 - $800

Realised: $1,080
