Note di degustazione
This is a very attractive Leoville-Barton that seems to be developing at a more accelerated pace than I had initially expected. A lovely, rather full, big bouquet of smoky, berryish, ripe fruit is first class. On the palate, the wine shows a good cedary, spicy, deep fruity constitution, moderate tannins, and a long finish. Just about ready. Anticipated maturity: Now. Last tasted, 1/88.

A moderately intense, herbaceous, cedary, smoky, earthy nose is followed by a medium-bodied wine with sweet fruit, adequate acidity, and light tannins in the finish. This wine is ready to be consumed. Drink it over the next 5-6 years. Last tasted, 5/93. Wine Advocate.August, 1993

Ch. Léoville Barton is a Second Growth Saint-Julien estate, one of the three famous Léoville estates (along with Léoville Poyferré and Léoville Las Cases). Owned by the Barton family (along with Ch. Langoa Barton), it produces classically structured Claret that ages beautifully.
