Léoville-Barton did not have any attached cru (such as Potensac and Léoville-Las Cases, Pibran and Pichon-Baron, etc.). This "gap" was filled in 2011 with the acquisition of a beautiful historical cru bourgeois de Moulis, Mauvesin, immediately renamed Mauvesin-Barton to show the Barton family's involvement in this new challenge. In all confidence!
Bettane & Desseauve : 90-91/100 « Un moulis fin et chic, bien fait, avec un déroulé en bouche qui emprunte les meilleurs habits du classicisme médocain. C'est une valeur sûre dans ce millésime. »
Le Point : 15/20
Galloni : 90-92/100 « The 2022 Mauvesin Barton is a joy to taste today. Plump, juicy and forward, the 2022 is marvelously seductive right out of the gate. Sof, caressing contours add a gorgeous sense of immediacy. »
Martin : 91-93/100 « The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, the cedar-infused black fruit tinged with white pepper and pencil shaving. Composed, nothing over-ambitious, yet long and tender on the finish. It is one of the best vintages that I have tasted from this estate. »
