Château Léoville Barton
Planted amongst the gravelly-clay soils, Château Léoville Barton is a long-established top producer in Saint-Julien. After the French Revolution the original Léoville property was split three estates, one being Léoville Barton, and the other two are fittingly Léoville Las Cases and Léoville Poyferré. Known today as one of Bordeaux’s great-value wines, the 2ème Grand Cru Classé property actually lacks its own château. Vinification therefore, with the same attention to detail takes place at the Barton’s family’s other Saint-Julien holding, Château Langoa Barton. From the early 1800s Léoville Barton has belonged to the Barton family, and Anthony Barton has managed the vineyards since 1986. The Grand Vin Léoville Barton is consistently intense and long-lived, a true Bordeaux meant for extended cellaring. The wine is a medium-full claret with well-thought oak, the fleshy, youthfully firm textures will develop harmoniously with several years’ patience.
