| Description: | 92 Ja / 92 De / 91 Jd / 91 Fs / 90 Vm / 16.5 Jr. Attractive, with personality and texture to the loganberry and blackberry fruit. The muscular tannins have juice running through them, and overall this has plenty of lift and tension while remaining appealingly unfussy. - Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux. Shiny glossy fruit on the nose, floral and pretty. Bright pink in the glass full of blackcurrant and cherry aromas. Nice plushness on the palate with chewy tannins that have a touch of dryness/chalkiness and drive of fresh red fruit, with some creamy, chalky aspects coming in on the finish. Nicely balanced. It's balanced and fresh, light and playful. Not showy, but easy. Touch of cedar wood on the edges at the finish. Drinking Window 2023 - 2030 - Goergina Hindle, Decanter. The 2019 La Réserve de Léoville Barton offers a mixture of red and black fruit, quite perfumed and floral, with crushed violet. The palate is well balanced, very supple, pure and elegant, leading to a delineated finish. This is lovely in an old-school way and will only need a couple of years in bottle. - Neal Martin, Vinous Media. Dark ruby garnet, opaque core, violet reflections, delicate edge brightening. Floral touch, a touch of coconut, nuances of cedar wood, black berries, notes of licorice in the background. Medium-bodied, firm, red wild berries, very lively structure, fine tannins, mineral-salty finish, lively accompaniment to food.-Peter Moser, Falstaff. A total charmer with plenty of up-front appeal, the 2019 La Réserve De Léoville Barton offers up lots of red and black currants, cedar pencil, leafy herbs, and a touch of spring flowers in a more medium-bodied, nicely balanced, fleshy, and forward style. It will keep for 10-12 years. - Jeb Dunnuck. Tasted blind. Fresh, dark crimson. Light nose. Pure Cabernet fruit and some acidity, but not much subtlety or tannin. Clean and fresh. It may well improve in bottle.-Jancis Robinson |
