The Château Langoa Barton 2014 is a blend of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Merlot and 12% Cabernet Franc cropped between 25 September and 8 October and raised in 60% new barrels. It has a backward nose that is tightly buttoned down: hints of blackberry, briary and cedar developing with time. The palate is harmonious with fine tannins, good density here for a Langoa Barton with new oak beautifully interwoven and filling out the finish. This is an impressive Langoa Barton, one of the most under-rated crus in Saint Julien. It`s one that will surprise a few people once in bottle. 91-93 points

The Bartons rarely disappoint with their wines, both in terms of quality and price, and this is a a typically concentrated, well structured Langoa. Savoury, graphite-scencted and full of bright cassis and damson fruit, this has the structure to age. 93 points
