Château Léoville Barton Saint‑Julien 2018
Château Léoville Barton Saint‑Julien 2018
SKU: CHLB18
Taste: Medium to full‑bodied and beautifully structured, the palate offers rich dark fruit flavors, firm yet polished tannins and energy that suggests excellent ageing potential. There’s impressive balance, length and minerality. It’s classic Saint‑Julien in style — poised and powerful.
Smell: This wine shows an intense and expressive nose of black fruits like cassis, blackberry and mulberry, intertwined with notes of mint, spice, violets, white pepper and hints of graphite/woodsmoke from oak maturation.
Description: Château Léoville Barton is a Second Growth (2ème Cru Classé) estate in the Saint‑Julien appellation of Bordeaux’s Médoc.
