The elegant, spice box, cedary, oaky, red and black currant-scented and flavored 1997 Leoville Barton reveals surprising softness, medium body, low acidity, and ripe tannin. Drink it over the next decade. I would not be surprised to see it improve in the bottle, and possibly merit a higher score.
Good berry, mineral character, with a hint of chocolate. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins and a fresh finish.
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 18/20 points.
