Château MAUVESIN BARTON
Red

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 : 92/100 “Open and sincere in character, it charms with its vibrant fruitiness and pleasant freshness. Clear progress in this vintage, following in the footsteps of the family’s great successes in Saint-Julien.”

La Revue du Vin de France: 90–91 “With its appealing suppleness and elegance, this wine showcases lovely, fresh and approachable fruit. The palate is harmonious, supported by mellow tannins and a silky texture. The delicate, smooth finish makes this a particularly pleasant wine to enjoy whilst still young.”

Vinous (A. Galloni) : 89-91/100 "The 2025 Mauvesin Barton is packed with black fruits, mocha, gravel, chocolate and baking spices. This is a pretty extroverted vintage for the Mauvesin, a wine with notable textural depth and richness. There is some edginess in the tannins that needs to soften, but élevage should help with that."

Vinous (N. Martin) : 88-90/100 "The 2025 Mauvesin Barton is matured in one-third new oak. It has a fairly straightforward bouquet with black plum and a light pressed flower note. It just needs a tad more energy. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, a fine, cohesive middle and an edgy, tobacco-tinged finish. Just a bit on the rustic side and needing a tad more precision."
