Note di degustazione
70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc. Leathery nose with a stable-floor scent that suggests rusticity, albeit in a charming way. Resolved tannins that nonetheless grip the finish, balanced acid, stately persistence. Defiantly old-fashioned claret for drinking now. (RH)

Tasted at Bordeaux Index's annual 10-Year On tasting in London. The 2006 Château Langoa Barton has a lifted nose of small dark cherries, blackberry, incense and marmalade - quite showy for Langoa Barton - but there is joie-de-vivre here. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, ripe and demonstrating impressive density plus a firm grip. This really coats the mouth in tannin, although it is still balanced. It just needs another 4-5 years in bottle, the stubborn little lady. Tasted January 2016.
Tasted blind. Very savoury on the nose. Solid but no charm. But it certainly ticks the boxes and has a certain solid typicality. (JR)
Informazioni sul produttore
Hugh Barton purchased this estate, alongside Second Growth Ch. Léoville Barton, in the 1820s. Classified as a Third Growth and run by Lilian Barton with her children Damien and Mélanie today, the 20 hectares of vines produce some of the appellation’s most elegant wines – and at reasonable prices.
