Bordeaux Château Léoville Barton

L'opinione del comitato

With the 2024 vintage, Léoville Barton remains true to its status and reputation, perfectly capturing the classic style of the year. It expresses the soul of a great Saint-Julien, the very essence of Bordeaux: a wine that's concentrated yet never austere, with a refined structure lifted by the freshness of Cabernet and radiant fruit flavors.

Its strength lies in the balance between elegance and depth. The tannins are superb in quality—silky and polished—wrapped in a broad, velvety texture. A deep menthol note and the graphite signature of Cabernet add freshness and dimension, giving the wine remarkable clarity and persistence.

The estate’s new winery and advances in small-batch vinification, tailored to individual vineyard plots, mark the beginning of a new era. Léoville Barton is clearly one of the Médoc’s standout names.

A top-tier Médoc, without a doubt—one of Olivier Poussier’s favorite of the vintage, rated 94/100.
