February 1, 2024 - This is such a serious wine. How can this not be the best Langoa ever, at least up to this point? (I haven't tried the 2020 yet.). It is rich, ripe, velvety, yes it's oaky with 14% alcohol, but this wine matches Leoville Barton in every way. Spectacular deep purple color, beautiful aromatics. Tell me which Langoa beats this effort? Beginning to wonder whether 2019 is indeed the best vintage ever, surpassing even 2016 with its personality and verve. Yes the oak is present at this early stage but that only enhances my certainty that this wine will age with complexity for 20-30 years, easily. This is the best Langoa Barton I have ever tasted. Hard to see how Leoville Barton beats this. Stunning. Rating: 95 points.

January 22, 2024 - My wife picked this out of the cellar. Too young for me. I’d give it at least 10 more years. Langoa Barton is a classic Bordeaux in taste, color etc. For me it has that beautiful Bordeaux nose. Nothing better than a sniff of this. I have many across several vintages. Will buy Langoa all day long for a great value. For this one, given the price, hold for 10 years and enjoy the fruits of picking a reasonably priced wine that will be incredible with a meal, and impress a friend.

December 17, 2023 - From half bottle. Painfully young, obviously. Decanted for about an hour and it was really full on at first, a wall of oak and fruit. After other hour it had started to mellow very slightly and was getting more bearable. Give it 10 years to integrate and this will be a blockbuster. 94+ based on potential.

November 17, 2023 - Very oaky and a dried out in the fruit department now. Presumably shutting down hard. Double-decanted and followed over two nights, this did show some nice dark fruits, and is clearly well-made, but comes across as a bit modern, even Californian, tasting over-oaked at this stage. I always find Leoville Barton to be quite a few notches above Langoa in every way, which I guess makes sense given their relative costs and reputations. This will either flesh out and integrate with 10-20 years or always remain a solid but a bit underfruited wine. Time will tell, but I wouldn't rush out to buy more of the wine in this vintage ...
