2025 Langoa Barton (St-Julien)
Secondary Description
45% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc
The slightly cooler terroir at Langoa (in comparison to sibling Leoville) has leant 2025 Langoa Barton a very perfumed style, with a plum-and-raspberry sorbet freshness, alongside darker blue and blackberry notes. There’s some cedar in there too, and a graphite finish. The medium-bodied palate supprts pliant tannins and good acidity. Commendably St-Julien. (NT 14/05/26)

Jane Anson
Langoa is very much a wine of the moment, with a sense of energy and punch, and you get that here, juicy and characterful, raspberry and cherry pit, hard to beat in terms of pleasure delivery. Great stuff. Very drinkable wine. Tasted twice, love the energy here. 93 points
Antonio Galloni
The 2025 Langoa-Barton is a very racy wine. Plush contours and vibrant dark red/purplish fruit are the signatures. Crushed flowers, cinnamon, red plum, blood orange and dried herbs open nicely in the glass. Floral overtones brighten the finish. This mid-weight, fruity, Merlot-driven Saint-Julien is all charm. It should drink well with minimal cellaring. Tasted two times. 91-93 points

Cropped at a mere 20 hectoliters per hectare, one of the lowest yields ever recorded at this address, the 2025 Langoa Barton offers up aromas of dark berries, pencil shavings, spices and new oak. Medium- to full-bodied, with bright acids and chalky tannins, it`s a blend of 45% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Cabernet Franc. 92-94 points

The 2025 Langoa-Barton was picked between September 4 and 18 and matured in 60% new oak barrels. It has a lively bouquet with the Merlot in full effect, blueberry and cassis scents, and just a background touch of peppermint. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, a lovely caressing texture, very well balanced with a touch of pepperiness towards the persistent finish. What a gorgeous Langoa! 92-94 points
