The 2014 Château Léoville Barton is an absolutely sensational showing that impresses on all levels. This classy Saint-Julien is composed of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot and 2% Cabernet Franc and opens to stunning aromatics of ripe dark berries, black plums, tobacco, spices and hints of spring florals all soaring from the glass. The medium-full body is silky and beautifully layered, displaying remarkable overall concentration, depth and balance leading up to the long, sleek finish. Overall, this is a simply fantastic wine, which will continue to evolve gracefully and provide a great deal of drinking pleasure over the next decade and beyond. (Best 2020-2032) - October, 2017 (JD)
