2000 Château Léoville Barton

Community Tasting Note

wrote:

Sunday, February 21, 2010 - Definitive Bordeaux (Mirabelle Restaurant Austin, Texas): Full and rich on the palate, balanced but a bit angular, dark and dirty, the Leoville Barton seemed balanced but not all that complex......yet. It had some dark fruit and Asian lilly on the nose, was dry rather than sweet, and simply needs a lot more time. It reminded me of the 1982, pleasantly dumb for about twenty years and then a very fine wine of structure, balance, and tar/leather/cedar flavors....
