Château Léoville Barton Saint Julien 2cc. 2020 0,75l

Château Léoville Barton is a benchmark Second Growth from Saint-Julien with about 47 hectares of vines on deep gravel over clay close to the Gironde. Cabernet Sauvignon dominates the plantings, supported by Merlot and Cabernet Franc from predominantly old vines. Hand harvesting, plot-by-plot vinification and ageing in French oak barrels shape the estate’s refined yet uncompromising style. The bouquet offers cassis, dark berries and cherry with cedar, tobacco and graphite. On the palate Léoville Barton is powerful, focused and classically firm, with cool fruit, dense tannins and impressive ageing potential.

Ageing in French oak shapes the dense fruit with tannin, spice and long ageing potential.
