Château Léoville-Barton--Vintage 1985
Saint-Julien, 2me cru classé
Corroded capsules, two damaged in lot 75. Lot 75 Bin-soiled and damp-affected labels, slightly damaged. Lots 76 and 77 Badly bin-soiled and damaged labels, some detached. Levels base of neck or better
Tasting note: Despite a couple of less than admiring notes, a classic. Deep, rich, sweet and easy, its nose particularly good at the Decanter tasting in 1994. More recently (March 2001): good depth of colour still, yet with a mature tawny rim; beautiful bouquet, fragrant, well knit. Lovely on palate, lightish style, refreshingly dry finish. Most recently: still deep, its lovely texture, wonderful flesh. Last noted lunching at Langoa, Oct 2001 ***** For me the perfect claret. Drink now - 2015 M.B.
