La Reserve de Leoville Barton St Julien is a classic wine from one of this appellation’s most famous estates.

The 50 hectare vineyard of Léoville Barton is on one of the most beautiful deep banks of Pyrenean gravels in the Médoc.  It was classified as a 2nd Grand Cru Classé in 1855. The vineyard nestles in the heart of the St Julien terroir among the most beautiful slopes of Garonne gravel, facing the Gironde river.

The clayey gravel subsoil allows excellent growing conditions whatever weather the vintage brings.

The ploughing is traditional, without weeding or herbicide. The grape varieties are Cabernet Sauvignon (74%), Merlot (23%) and Cabernet Franc (3%), sourced from younger vines. It then ages for 16-18 months in French oak barrels.

Enjoy La Reserve de Leoville Barton St Julien with shoulder of lamb braised in wine. Drinking well at the moment, but will keep for another 5 or so years.

Producer’s Tasting Notes

Intense garnet colour, depth and dense with a beautiful brightness. Opulent nose with spicy, peppery, roasted notes and a touch of strawberry jam.

The attack is frank, ample with a beautiful tannic structure. Delicate notes of vanilla and cherry stand out in mouth
