Description: | Tasting Note. Wine Advocate: 93-95. A terrific success, the 2021 Léoville Barton unwinds in the glass with aromas of blackcurrant, wild berries and plums mingled with hints of pencil shavings, loamy soil and cigar wrapper. Medium to full-bodied, deep and seamless, it's concentrated and tensile, with beautifully refined tannins, lively acids and all the class that an elevated percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon growing in deep gravel can provide. It's the first vintage vinified in the Barton family's new winery, and I suspect that contributes to the ultra-refined quality of tannin this year. The blend is 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot and 3% Cabernet Franc. Tasted three times. Sotheby's Wine: 90-92. A classic Léoville Barton. Intensely black fruited with a beautiful, perfumed nose, and everything in its place. Finishes elegantly with fine tannins and good length. - Paul Tortora |
