Lot 637 Details
CHÂTEAU LÉOVILLE BARTON 2016

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

The 2019 Léoville Barton is a timeless classic, made for patient connoisseurs. Offering up aromas of blackcurrants, plums, pencil shavings and licorice, it's full-bodied, deep and concentrated, its deep core of fruit framed by a chassis of rich, powdery tannin that makes itself felt on the youthfully firm finish. While it's clearly built for the long haul, its structural seamlessness and mid-palate plenitude mark it out as one of the finest wines from this château in recent times. April 2022 Drink to 2069 WA 97
