Château Léoville Barton Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

$195

Aromas of pure blackberries and violets follow through to a full body, with super velvety tannins and a delicious balance of sweet fruit, light vanilla and nuts. Really savory and beautiful. Superb wine... James Suckling

Part 1 of the final and main event for the Fall WNH. The most spectacular lineup of wines I’ve ever seen, and an overall wonderful ending to an amazing trip with fantastic people. A baby, but already strutting its power. This is no doubt a modern take on Bordeaux with more rich/sweet black and blue fruit than others, but it reigns in before it gets too Nap-esque as the fruit is more underripe. Mid palate and finish show dark chocolate, bay leaf and a touch of leather. Because of the style, not too adverse to opening now with a 2-3hr decant, but this will improve for many years. Bravo, @Mike R .

A supremely balanced wine with intense tannins and a myriad of black fruit flavors. Extremely full bodied.

I don't drink French reds as often as California, but this was outstanding. Really fine flavors, more fruit than most of the French reds that I've had. Fantastic wine.

The pedigree is here and it will be great one day but it is shut down right now. Put it away and enjoy it with your grandkids.
