Chateau Leoville Barton 2014 - Case of 12 Bottles (75cl)The 2014 Leoville Barton is one of the must buys of the vintage. Now in bottle, it has a very pure bouquet that gains intensity in the glass, laden with blackberry and raspberry coulis scents, cold wet stone, a wonderful mineralit that becomes more conspicuous with aeration. The palate is medium bodied with tensile tannin, a fine line of acidity that lends this precision and nervosit. There is class and sophistication in situ, not a powerful Loville

raspberry and plenty of freshly turned earth character

The focus and penetration here ranks among the finest that I have tasted at this estate since first coming here in 1997

this vintage is downright regal in its juxtaposition between poise and audaciousness

kirsch and blueberry compote with hints of rose hip tea

This liquid is simply alive in the mouth
