ChateauLeovilleBarton 2eme Cru Classe Saint Julien
Description: One of five St Julien second growth properties, in the 1855 classification, ChateauLeoville is referred to as a Super-Second. that is, a chateau working at a quality level equal or approaching that of a first growth. ChateauLeoville-Barton was the Second of two estates bought by Hugh Barton in the 1820s, the other being Chateau Langoa-Barton. Since this time the Estates have remained with the family and today it is run by Anthony Barton and by his daughter Lillian. From one generetion to another the wines produced by the two properties have maintained the quality of their classification, offering wines at the very top of their appellation. The soil of St Julien is ideal for vines, due to its geographic situation and its climate; every element is present to produce wines of exceptional quality and elegance. The 45 ha estate of Chateaux LeovilleBarton, along with the 15 ha Chateau Langoa-Barton have the great privilege of being in the very heart of this appellation. Both Chateaux's produce Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and a little Cabernet Franc grapes used in the blend of this wine. Both Chateaux use the same winery and adopt traditional methods when the wines are being made. Finally the wine is aged in oak in the cellars for 18 month with 50% new barrels each year, then the wine is fined and filtered prior to bottling. A Cabernet Sauvignon dominated wine with a dark ruby core and expressive complex nose. Spicy black fruits and ripe tannins are evident although an austere element is showing before the enjoyable finish. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £606.69
