The 2018 Bordeaux vintage was shaped by a wet spring followed by a prolonged period of warm, dry weather, allowing excellent ripeness and concentration.
At Léoville Barton, the vintage produced a richly textured yet precise wine, with ripe black fruit, refined tannins and the underlying freshness necessary for extended cellaring.
A blend of 82% Cabernet Sauvignon and 18% Merlot, the 2018 combines the generosity of the vintage with the estate's characteristic structure and elegance.
