Chateau Leoville Barton 1995 - en Magnum
£195.00Price
The 1995 L�oville Barton from Ch�teau L�oville Barton stands as a testament to the excellence that St-Julien is capable of producing in exceptional years. This vintage, quixotically characterised by a temperate summer followed by a timely, dry harvest season, bestowed upon the grapes an optimal ripeness with a backbone of vivacious acidity necessary for protracted maturation.
This 1995 possesses a dark ruby/purple color, as well as an oaky nose with classic scents of cassis, vanillin, cedar, and spice. Dense and medium to full-bodied, with softer tannin and more accessibility than the 1996, but not quite the packed and stacked effect on the palate, the 1995 is an outstanding textbook St.-Julien that will handsomely repay extended cellaring.
