Chateau Langoa Barton

Description

St Julien appellation. Berry Bros and Rudd label. Slight depressed cork. Good colour. i tried same wine and condition with the Christmas turkey and tasting of typical claret of the time. Slight tears to label.

Some facts:

Léoville Barton is a 45-hectare, second-growth château in the St. Julien appellation. Cabernet sauvignon accounts for a little over 70 percent of plantings, with merlot and a small number of cabernet franc vines making up the rest.

No. 2: A potted history:

The château's story starts in Ireland with the Barton family. Thomas Barton left the Emerald Isle for France as a trader, fetching up in Bordeaux in 1725. He become an important figure in the wine trade, but didn't buy any vineyards. His grandson, Hugh, purchased Château Langoa in St. Julien in 1821 and later acquired a part of the great Léoville estate, which would become Léoville Barton. The estate remains in the family today under the stewardship of Anthony Barton and his daughter, Lilian.

No. 3. The brave soldier:

In 1924, Ronald Barton, Anthony's uncle, arrived from England to take over the family business. He didn't have an easy time, with Prohibition (1920–33) killing off the U.S. market. He also had to face a succession of poor vintages and, in 1939, the outbreak of World War II.

In 1940, Barton was forced to leave France before the Germans arrived, serving in the British army as an officer with the Free French Forces in North Africa, France and Italy. He was awarded the French Legion d'Honneur, the Croix de Guerre and the Liberation Medal for his services. Returning to France adorned with military honors, he found the vineyards in a dilapidated state and slowly restored them to their former glory.
