  February 22, 2016 - The wine is not gone but just an example of a hard year. Not very good. Unripe tones on the nose, chemicals and fish (!?) Not very good palate too, not pleasant bitterness and acidity. Just a poor effort from a great Château.

  January 18, 2015 - Muted red fruit and super smooth mellow tannin. This wasn't a brilliant year, but demonstrates what is achievable by a decent winemaker. This won't improve but is delicious now, if slightly lacking complexity.

  July 8, 2013 - Wine Education Service - Château Langoa Barton (LSE): Just opaque, not much age.
  Still fruity on the nose, with animal notes, pleasant and inviting.
  Delicious, soft tannins, cooked fruit, on the cusp.

  June 16, 2013 - Decent enough mature claret, some cedar on the nose, fading fruit, won't improve from here. Reasonable effort from a difficult year, but doesn't shoot the lights out.

  July 14, 2011 - Wine Education Service - Château Langoa Barton Troisième Cru Classé: Ripe baked fruit, youthful for an eighteen year old wine, a quite lovely fragrance.
  Tannin dominated fruit, but balanced, smooth drinking well.
