Even if their evolution always involves a period of austerity, Léoville-Barton wines have a supreme class and elegance, due as much to the advanced age of the vines as to meticulous work. Always praised by the critics, as in 2015 "fine, sapid and very long, lots of class on the palate, with a juicy side and superb texture", rated 97/100 by the Revue du Vin de France.
The 2014 vintage in the press:
Vinous (N. Martin - February 2024): 94/100 “Léoville Barton 2014 presents a seductive and beautifully composed bouquet, with ample scents of stalky red fruits, undergrowth and light pencil shavings. This is a wine of great finesse. The palate is well balanced with fine tannins, a keen line of acidity and more salinity than its peers. What feels like top-quality new oak smooths the finish but does not impose itself. This is a top-class Saint-Julien from the Barton family.”
