With a history dating back to 1826, Château Léoville Barton produces wines of power and structure, reflecting the estate's gravelly terroir in Saint-Julien.

What the critics say:

94/100Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux

"Stands out for the elongated and supple shape and texture of the tannins, builds complexity over the palate and this is well structured, with elegant, finessed, savoury but carefully extracted cassis and bilberry fruits, with cocoa bean and cigar. One of the wines in the vintage with definition and ageing ability, and retains clear Léoville Barton character. Harvest 24 September to 5 October. 60% new oak for ageing."

92-94/100William Kelley, Wine Advocate

"A serious wine that will delight patient purists, but which also showcases the new levels of purity and precision that this estate has been attaining since completion of the new winery, the 2024 Léoville Barton is a blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot and 2% Cabernet Franc. Unwinding in the glass with notes of cassis, plums, pencil shavings and violets, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and impressively concentrated, with a taut but nicely integrated profile, concluding with a pure, penetrating finish."

OUR GROWERS

Château Léoville Barton

Third Growth Château Léoville -Barton is a model of a St Julien Bordeaux with typical restraint and elegance. The first of the two Bordeaux wine estates bought by Hugh Barton in the 1820s, it is one of the few chateaux that is still in the hands of the same family that was an owner at the time of the 1855 classification.
