Description

It is no secret that Anthony Barton's efforts over the last decade at his St.Julien estate, Leoville Barton, is resulting in terrific wines at still reasonable prices. This estate has been extremely successful in recent vintages. An impressive, serious, classic Bordeaux for collectors who are willing to forget about it for at least a decade, this well-endowed offering is a 30-year wine. The dense, murky, purple colour, closed aromatics, massive flavor richness, and high tannin recall the old, non-compromised, beefy, blockbuster Medocs produced thirty years ago. However, this wine possesses sweeter tannin, and was made under far more sanitary conditions. It is a classic, but patience is definitely required. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2030. 90/100 points Robert Parker

A mouthful for the vintage, with its lovely berry, chocolate and tobacco aromas and flavours, medium to full body and chewy tannins. Fresh finish.

8/21/2013 - HKM520240 WROTE:93 Points
Opened for bottle breath since noon time but it wan't enough and further decanted for another hour before serving at the dinner.
Dark ruby red with slight brick red rims, nice subtle elegant and complex nose, cigar box, tobacco, earth, mocha with hints of spice at the end. A very classic claret that is typical of the vintage and shed its weight along the aging process. Elegant, subtle and full of finesse, compliment by cigar box, tobacco, cherry and blackcurrant on palate. Nice balance acidity with a long persistent finish and smooth tannins. Surprising this is drinking very well now but it should continue to hold.

Again this was teamed up with a 1988 beside for comparison and to give us some perspective when going through a flight of 2003 Bdx to access aging potential relative to how the wines were showing at 10 years of age. This wine was much more deep red as opposed to the more purple 1988. The nose on this was much more awake and filled with plenty of red fruits like dark bing cherry, some red currants and logan berry. It also had the cedar tobacco notes and muddled earth. on the palate the fruit showed very well considering its age, typical of LB wines. earth was also present and what stuck out nicely was the bright acids that married well with soft mouth coating tannins. This really had a nice long finish that kept me adding a touch more to my glass. excellent.

Took this to Ruth's Chris. The Chateau Leoville Barton is always great. This old vintage paired well with my filet. Dark fruits, strong tannins and a smooth long finish make this earthy wine exquisite.

3/14/2013 - FARINAS LIKES THIS WINE:93 Points
Wine Regions of the World (Private Residence): Color was an intensely saturated full body red with a bouquet balanced ripe fresh fruit, sweet currant, blackberries. Entry was lively and refreshing with acid, tannins, and alcohol all in great harmony. Body was medium with plum, soft tannins, and a healthy dose of glycerin with a medium to long finish. My first experience with a Barton and I must say that I'm impressed with quality and finesse of what's in the bottle (especially a 19 year old bottle). These wines are in the classic style with perfect balance and the vintage quality just seems to dial up/down its intensity.

3/8/2013 - CHEUNGTP LIKES THIS WINE:94 Points
Ruby red with just a touch of browning near the rim. This claret has still kept some youthful character in herself, with aromatics of soft red fruits, violet, forest floor and tobacco leaf. Silky on the palate, with the tannins just about noticeable, very finely integrated already. The wine added some weight with more air time, and revealed soothing bouquet of dried leather, cocoa powder, pencil shaving and hint of mushroom. Tannins gotten more tasty, and the wine has a nice acidity to keep it well balanced and fresh. Such a nice tasting experience.
