Château Léoville-Barton 2008
Saint-Julien, 2ème cru classé
In original wooden case
Tasting note: An inky/purple color is followed by notes of forest floor, camphor, red and black fruits, and a hint of wood. This brawny, masculine-styled St.-Julien possesses huge body, massive concentration, and mouth-searing levels of tannin. However, the tannins are much sweeter than the 2005's were at the same stage, so that should not be an issue as long as potential purchasers exercise patience. This impressively pure, classic Bordeaux should be at its finest between 2020-2050. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate# 182, Apr 2009.
