Château Léoville Barton 2001 Saint-Julien

Country: France /
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend Bordeaux
Winery: Château Léoville Barton / Saint-Julien

A wonderfully firm, concentrated wine that walks a fine, balanced line between richness and poised structure. It is classic in the best sense, showing all the shape of a fine Bordeaux, while adding the extra dimension of the freshest of black fruits, complexity from a few hints of wood, and a dark, brooding, long-lasting aftertaste.
