Description

1 rare Magnum of Chateau Leoville Barton 1996.

Perhaps a good 21st Birthday bottle?

In really good condition. Levels very high into the neck, capsule is good, but the label has a wine stain (see pictures) as a result of leakage from another bottle, and it has a little fading/yellowing.

The price reflects this stain.

Review:
This impressive wine is a classic. Although backward, it exhibits a dense ruby/purple color in addition to abundant black currant fruit intertwined with spicy oak and truffle-like scents. The wine is brilliantly made, full-bodied, and tightly-structured with plenty of muscle and outstanding concentration and purity. It should turn out to be a long-lived Leoville Barton, and somewhat of a sleeper. However, patience will be required. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2030.

If paying via Paypal, can we split the 4% commission charge.

As an additional collection option, the wine could also be collected from Hammersmith (or therebouts), for which we would have to arrange the day (as this is work dependent)
