Description

Join Felipe Carvallo for a vertical tasting of the wines from Ch. Léoville Barton. This property is the smallest portion of the great Léoville estate and has been owned by the Barton family since 1826. There is no château and the wine is made at Langoa Barton. Léoville Barton's 48 hectares of vineyards are located in the east of the appellation and lie on gravelly-clay soils. Since Anthony Barton took over the reins from his Uncle Ronald in the mid 1980s, quality has soared at Léoville Barton and the wine has gone from being a solid mid-league performing Deuxième Cru Classé to one of the most exciting and scintillating wines in St Julien. Léoville Barton is tannic and austere in youth but with time develops the classic cedary character that is the hallmark of St Julien, along with intensely pure blackcurrant and cassis fruit notes. Over the course of the evening you will have the opportunity to trace how the wines develop over time, tasting younger and more mature vintages from this famous estate.

Dress code: smart casual

NB Wines for this event will be chosen from Berry Bros. & Rudd’s stock at the time of the event, so most will be available to order afterwards.
