Description

Chateau Leoville Barton 1996
St. Julien
Bottle (7)

Wines sourced by an industry insider from impeccable sources. Many wines are one-step removed from the cellar door, and all stored in temperature and humidity control.

"The 1996 Leoville Barton appears more youthful than the 1996 Langoa Barton in the glass with a healthy deep garnet core. The aromatics unfurl gracefully in the glass revealing briary, wild hedgerow, black truffle and sandalwood scents -- firmly in secondary aroma stage but with appreciable presence and intensity. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannin that form its firm and classic structure, spice, white pepper and cloves infusing the slightly animally red berry fruit. This is an adorable Léoville Barton that is occupying a very "happy" place at the moment -- superb precision, old school claret at its best. Decant for an hour no more, then enjoy." (93 pts. Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, Oct. 2016)
