The 1996 Leoville Barton appears more youthful than the 1996 Langoa Barton in the glass with a healthy deep garnet core. The aromatics unfurl gracefully in the glass revealing briary; wild hedgerow; black truffle and sandalwood scents — firmly in secondary aroma stage but with appreciable presence and intensity. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannin that form its firm and classic structure; spice; white pepper and cloves infusing the slightly animally red berry fruit. This is an adorable Leoville Barton that is occupying a very happy place at the moment — superb precision; old school claret at its best. Decant for an hour no more; then enjoy. Tasted July 2016. Drink Date 2016 – 2035
