  • Goedhuis Waddesdon, April 2025, Score: 94

    Deep, glowing crimson. More classic Claret austerity on the nose – chuck full of graphite and pencil shavings. Glorious Cabernet focus to the nose. Finesse and elegance already apparent, with cassis and plum, framed by subtle oak spices. On the palate, it already feels very complete and comfortable with itself, with a velvety but quite well-established tannic drive and a wonderful core of refreshing acidity. This feels quite traditional and built to last, in the best way possible. 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc. Expected alcohol 13%. 60% new barrels. Drinking date: 2030-2055.

  • Neal Martin, April 2025, Score: 91-93

    The 2024 Léoville Barton was picked from September 24 to October 5 and contains just a little more Cabernet Sauvignon than previous vintages. Matured in 60% new oak, this has an open bouquet with black fruit, potpourri and light sous-bois scents—quintessentially Barton. The palate is medium-bodied, well balanced and sapid in style with slightly powdery tannins on the entry and a little sinew on the finish that should be abraded during barrel maturation. This is a finely crafted Léoville Barton that should age with grace.

  • Antonio Galloni, April 2025, Score: 93-95

    The 2024 Léoville Barton is a very beautiful wine. Black cherry, plum, lavender, new leather, graphite, crushed rocks, mocha and spice all meld together. A wine of classical build, Léoville Barton is also wonderfully deep and expressive. Today, all of its energy is directed inwards, but there is a lot of wine here. I can't wait to taste this from bottle. Tasted two times.

  • Wine Advocate, April 2025, Score: 92-94

    A serious wine that will delight patient purists, but which also showcases the new levels of purity and precision that this estate has been attaining since completion of the new winery, the 2024 Léoville Barton is a blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot and 2% Cabernet Franc. Unwinding in the glass with notes of cassis, plums, pencil shavings and violets, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and impressively concentrated, with a taut but nicely integrated profile, concluding with a pure, penetrating finish.

  • James Suckling, May 2025, Score: 95-96

    A classic Bordeaux that shows finesse and poise. This is understated, with a medium body, lovely texture and acidity, freshness and brightness. It shows firm tannins that aren't chewy. Very long and honest, with pure fruit. 92% cabernet sauvignon, 6% merlot and 2% cabernet franc.

  • Matthew Jukes, April 2025, Score: 18.5

    92 Cabernet Sauvignon, 6 Merlot, 2 Cabernet Franc: 60% new oak: 13% alc As always, there is no shortage of class here. Assembled from fabulously formal and deeply resonant ingredients, lashings of oak spice, raucous tannins and unexpected savoury elements combine to make ’24 Léoville Barton an absolute belter. Despite a more combative finish than expected, I strongly feel this will not be a long-term wine but a consummate middle-distance specialist. Be sure to ask the question when it reaches its tenth birthday, as I am certain it will already show ravishingly suave fruit as the proud Cabernet core finds harmony.

  • Jancis Robinson, April 2025, Score: 17+

    Dark fruit with minty freshness. Juicy fruit with plenty of substance. Lots of freshness. Tannins firm but refined. Hint of oak. Persistence on the finish. All the components present for a complete wine. (JL)

  • Jane Anson, April 2025, Score: 94

    Stands out for the elongated and supple shape and texture of the tannins, builds complexity over the palate and this is well structured, with elegant, finessed, savoury but carefully extracted cassis and bilberry fruits, with cocoa bean and cigar. One of the wines in the vintage with definition and ageing ability, and retains clear Léoville Barton character. Harvest 24 September to 5 October. 60% new oak for ageing.

Château Léoville Barton

One of the great names in classically styled claret, Léoville Barton has been owned by the same family throughout its entire existence - an unheard of rarity in Bordeaux. Their roots can be traced back to 1826, when Hugh Barton bought 50 hectares of vines in the heart of St Julien and subsequently Château Leoville Barton was made a 2ème Cru Classe in the 1855 classification.

One of the great names in classically styled claret, Léoville Barton has been owned by the same family throughout its entire existence - an unheard of rarity in Bordeaux. Their roots can be traced back to 1826, when Hugh Barton bought 50 hectares of vines in the heart of St Julien and subsequently Château Leoville Barton was made a 2ème Cru Classe in the 1855 classification. Today, the Château is run by Anthony Barton’s daughter Lillian and her son Damien Barton-Sartorius. Unusual for the Médoc region, there is no château based on the property. As a result, the wines are vinified and aged at neighbouring Langoa Barton, which as its name suggests, is also owned by the Barton family.Read less

Region

St Julien

St Julien is like the middle child of the Médoc - not as assertive as Pauillac or as coquettish as Margaux. It lies firmly between the two more outspoken communes and as a result produces a blend of them both. St Julien's wines have often been sought out by aficionados for their balance and consistency, particularly in the UK. Yet due to its middle child nature, it can occasionally be overlooked globally and as a result underrated by those markets outside the UK. Despite the fact that it has no first growths, it has several second growths including Léoville Las Cases, Léoville Barton, Léoville Poyferré and Ducru Beaucaillou as well as the celebrated châteaux such as Talbot and Beychevelle.
