Amazing bottle. Part of a 3 bottle vertical of Leoville Barton.
Excellent on the nose right off, the youngest of the 3 bottles in the vertical. Some sediment, but that is to be expected due to age.
Bold and acidic, with notes of leather, oak, and dark fruits. Nice, lighter color to it. An amazing drink, and excellent to compare with the other two vintages. My personal favorite out of the three.

PNP, followed over the night. Open from the get go, cassis, plum, sweet tobacco. Early maturity, slightly chewy tannins, nice acidity. Maybe not made for old bones, but very enjoyable now and over the next 5+ years.

At his peak. Primary notes in the background, classical left bank Bordeaux, missing a bit the density. 92

5/12, excellent cork. Decanted and immediately served.
Deep ruby/garnet core, narrow pale ruby rim. Composed nose with blackcurrant fruit, smoky mineral notes. Medium bodied, middleweight claret showing cool, dark fruit, cedar, mineral notes, touch of tobacco, soft tannins, fresh acidity on a good length now quite harmonious finish. Excellent, continues to show well, no hurry.
