Description
The 1996 Leoville Barton appears more youthful than the 1996 LangoaBarton in the glass with a healthy deep garnet core. The aromaticsunfurl gracefully in the glass revealing briary, wild hedgerow, blacktruffle and sandalwood scents — firmly in secondary aroma stage butwith appreciable presence and intensity. The palate is medium-bodiedwith 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
