One of Bordeaux's great estates, Leoville Barton has under the stewardship of Anthony Barton produced powerful, structured expressions of St Julien that reward time in the cellar. The 2004 was a great success for the vintage, full of dense rich muscular dark fruit and an endless finish. Starting to drink beautifully.
"This is an impressively endowed vin de garde that should age effortlessly for 20-30 years. How Anthony Barton continues to fashion uncompromisingly primordial Bordeaux that are always among the biggest and densest of all the St.-Juliens is beyond me, but he does it year in and year out. Moreover, when it’s time to set the price, he appears to have the consumer foremost in his mind. The 2004 is a classic Leoville-Barton meant for long aging. Concentrated, with loads of smoke, creme de cassis, forest floor, and earthy notes emerge from this impressive, but oh, so backward wine. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2030+" 92/100, Robert Parker.
