CRITIC REVIEWS
Neal Martin
The 2016 Langoa Barton has an exquisite bouquet with perfumed black and blueberry fruit, beautifully integrated oak, the most sensual aromatics among the flight of Saint-Julien. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, very lithe and fluid, touches of liquorice that come through towards the velvety finish. I actually thought this was the Leoville Poyferre! Tasted blind at the Southwold 10-Year-On tasting.

The 2016 Langoa Barton is medium to deep garnet-purple colored and opens with cedar, red and black currants, kirsch and menthol with smoked meats. The palate is medium to full-bodied, firm, grainy and packed with youthful, energetic fruit, finishing long and perfumed.

Tasted blind. More evolved than most. Attractive already with good fruit almost masking the tannin. Lightly but attractively inky. Medium-bodied. Far from a blockbuster but very nicely balanced. [GV] (JR)
