Chateau Langoa Barton 2021

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (93)

The first vintage vinified in the Barton family's new winery, the 2021 Langoa Barton is immensely promising, offering up aromas of cassis, cigar wrapper, loamy soil and black truffle, followed by a medium to full-bodied, velvety and seamless palate that's deep and complete, its vibrant core of fruit framed by ripe tannins and lively acids. It's a blend of 61% Cabernet Sauvignon, 36% Merlot and 3% Cabernet Franc. Tasted three times.

James Suckling (93)

Blackberry and black olives with currants and crushed stone. Medium body, integrated tannins and a savory finish.

BOW (8.25)

Falstaff (92)

Dark, almost opaque ruby core, purple reflections, subtle brightening on the rim. Very inviting bouquet of orange zest with fine nuances of cassis and blackberries. Medium body, ripe cherries, fine tannins, light-bodied, highly accessible, versatile style of wine.
