2013 Chateau Langoa-Barton

Winemaker Notes

Dense purple color. The wine has a powerful aroma with notes of violets, blackberries, currants, licorice
and chocolate. Balanced taste of dark fruit, soft vanilla and nuts. Juicy with velvety tannins and a long, delicious finish. 

Hint Mystery Bottle 1

Pale straw in color, offering aromas of honeysuckle, ripe pear, Meyer lemon, and lychee. These delicious aromas are complemented on the palate by cool climate minerality, rich texture, and a spritz of natural carbonation on the finish.

Hint Mystery Bottle 2

A classic Riesling with structured minerality and well-balanced acidity. Varietally expressive aroma of wet slate. Key lime and candied lemon peel appear through the refreshing finish making this a fine pairing for roasted poultry, ginger shrimp curry, or aged cheeses.

Hint Mystery Bottle 3

James Sucklilng 92

Vivid notes of black raspberry, fresh pomegranate juice, with wild blueberry, sassafras, subtle licorice, toasted oak an earthy backbone, and grippy tannins. Generous and fruit forward.

Hint Mystery Bottle 4

Wine Enthusiast 95

This wine is bright, clean and delicious with a solid core of minerality surrounded by grace notes of citrus fruit and honeysuckle. This wine can only enhance their alreadysolid reputation as a producer of great Riesling.

Hint Mystery Bottle 5

This Pinot Noir shows rich colors of dark garnet and currant. Plentiful aromas of cherry cola, black tea and wild blueberry give ample depth and character to the wine. A pleasant array of fruit flavors and barrel notes includes marionberry, candied cherry and hints of cedar and sweet tobacco. The wine tickles the palate with lingering tannins and a generous round mouthfeel.

About Winery

Chateau Langoa-Barton, 3rd Classified Growth, was the first of the two Bordeaux wine estates bought by Hugh Barton in the 1820s, the other being Leoville-Barton, 2nd Classified Growth.

Hugh Barton was a descendant of an Irish family which settled in Bordeaux in the 18th century and which has a long and distinguished history in the region's wine trade. Both properties are still family-owned and run and together represent the longest tradition of unchanged ownership in the Medoc. Anthony Barton is the current proprietor but is gradually passing the reins to his daughter Lillian. Langoa Barton has 20 hectares of vineyards (Cabernet Sauvignon 71%, Merlot 21% and Cabernet Franc 8%) lie on gravelly-clay soils. Vinification includes 18 months' maturation in oak barriques (50% new). Langoa Barton is vinified and matured in exactly the same way as Leoville-Barton and any difference between them must be put down to variations in the soils and exposure of their respective vineyard blocks.

Both Langoa and Leoville wines are models of typical St Julien restraint and elegance, and Anthony's fair pricing policy, always with an eye to the long term has won him many loyal friends amongst his customers. For years, Langoa Barton was considered slightly lighter and more forward than Leoville. However, in the last decade it has become noticeably deeper in colour and richer and more concentrated on the palate. Langoa Barton is now often the equal of Leoville.

2013 Chateau Langoa-Barton

92 points James Suckling

Outer quote mark A firm and silky red with lots of currant, flower and citrus aromas and flavors. Medium to full body, integrated tannins and a long finish. Excellent for the vintage. Subtle finish. Drink or hold. Inner quote mark (2/2016)

92 points Wine Enthusiast

Outer quote mark The wine now in bottle has maintained the lively character found in the barrel tasting. Added to that is a firm structure, with layers of wood and intense acidity. This wine will age over the medium-term, so drink from 2019. Inner quote mark (3/2016)
