Château Léoville Barton 2ème Cru Classé 2020 is a classic and exclusive red wine from Saint-Julien, Bordeaux, with an impressive structure, depth, and aristocratic balance. The vintage presents itself intensely and precisely with beautiful concentration and great aging potential.

The aroma offers blackcurrant, blackberry, and dark plums, complemented by tobacco, cedar, graphite, violet, and fine spices. The taste is full-bodied and focused with silky tannins, fresh acidity, and an elegant balance between dark fruit, minerality, and a long, refined finish.

The wine pairs excellently with beef, lamb, duck, game, as well as braised, grilled, and oven-roasted dishes – an obvious choice for exclusive dinners and special occasions.

95 /100

A superb wine, the 2020 Léoville Barton exhibits generous aromas of blackberries and crème de cassis mingled with hints of licorice, pencil shavings and classy new oak. Medium to full-bodied, broad and fleshy, with a concentrated core of fruit, sweet tannins and a nicely defined finish, it bears some similarities with the estate's demonstrative 2000 vintage, even if the two growing seasons were quite different. I suspect it will tighten up with more time in bottle, hence the plus sign next to my score, but right now, the 2020 is unusually accessible out of the gates. - William Kelley, Wine Advocate

96 /100

Dark ruby garnet, purple reflections, opaque core, delicate rim brightening. Ripe plums, a touch of nougat, dark berry fruit, inviting bouquet. Powerful, juicy, black cherry, fresh and lively, fine, ripe tannins, mineral, long lasting, shows freshness and length, certain ageing potential, fine cassis on the finish, great food companion. (2028-2060).

Dense and with velvety tannins, this wine has great structure and concentration without being too weighty. This solid wine is sure to age. Drink from 2027.

About the grape

Rød Bordeaux Blend

Rød Bordeaux Blend er en kombination af de druesorter, der traditionelt bruges til Bordeaux' berømte rødvine. Det er ikke en officiel betegnelse, men en praktisk måde at tale om en vinsstil, der nu dyrkes over hele verden – fra Californien til Australien, Sydafrika til Chile.

Essensen er fleksibilitet: typisk en blend af Cabernet Sauvignon og Merlot, ofte suppleret med Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot og Malbec. Hver drue tilfører noget unikt – struktur, frugt, krydderier eller blødhed.

Rød Bordeaux Blend er for dig, der søger kraftfuld struktur og dybe smagsnuancer. Det er vine med personlighed – nogle kan nydes straks, andre udvikler sig smukt gennem årene. Her får du en vinsstil med historisk fundament, der stadig inspirerer vinmagere verden over.

Serving

Rød Bordeaux Blend serveres bedst ved 16-18°C, hvor vinens frugt, struktur og kompleksitet står skarpest. Serveres den for varm, kan alkoholen virke mere dominerende, mens for lav temperatur dæmper aromaerne. Bordeaux anbefaler selv 16-18°C til strukturerede og lagringsværdige rødvine.
