Specification

Producer

Château Leoville Barton

This Château is always one of the best selling wines, due to its consistent high quality and the long standing commitment by the Barton family to maintain a sensible pricing policy. The vineyards are intensely planted with 9,100 vines per ha. Aged for 18 months in 60% new oak, this is a balanced and impressive claret, very much in the Leoville style.

Tasting Notes

Cabernet Sauvignon dominant, the nose is rich, dark and intense in the glass. The palate is a combination of sweet black fruits cut with notes of savoury capsicum, cedar and some graphite. The palate is powerful and somewhat opulent, sweet-edged and muscular and then it tightens on the finish. A superb claret!

Food Matches

Enjoy with a classic beef wellington.

Vinification

Harvest dates: 12th September - 5th October. Yield of 50hl/ha. Aged in 60% French oak barrels for 18 months. Alc 13%.
