We are excited to offer an extensive and historical vertical of one of Bordeaux's most storied Grand Cru Classé estates, Château Léoville Barton. This wine has historically ranked amongst the best Quality-to-Price Ratio (QPR) wines in all of Bordeaux, and they possess a consistent record of developing gracefully with age. In a Bordeaux market where many of our favorite estates are now owned by insurance companies or foreign investors, this estate remains symbolic of the old Bordeaux. This winemaking family is now into their 10th generation of family ownership, making Leoville-Barton, along with sister property Langoa-Barton, as the longest-running single family owned estates in Bordeaux.
Leoville-Barton is a Second Growth and star producer of Saint-Julien and highly prestigious and collectible. The wines have never been more exciting deserving of their 2nd Growth status. They are powerful and structured in their youth, and they excel in uneven vintages of moderate potential. We have some superstar vintages, as well as some deep cuts for you to choose from, all of which are nothing but stellar.
"This estate has been on fire in recent vintages, and the 2018 Château Léoville Barton is up there with the best of them." - Jeb Dunnuck
95 points from Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate: "Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 Léoville Barton charges out of the gate with bold notions of baked plums, crème de cassis and blueberry preserves plus wafts of pencil shavings, fragrant earth and cedar chest. Medium to full-bodied, the palate delivers mouth-coating black fruit preserves with compelling herbal sparks and a firm, grainy texture, finishing long and lively."
