Community Tasting Note

PanosKakaviatos Likes this wine:

Thursday, March 25, 2010 - Wine dinner with Chateau Leoville Barton & Langoa Barton during ProWein 2010 (Dusseldorf): A rather fresh bouquet of rhubarb mingling with cherry, cassis and leather. The palate was fine, smooth, with melted tannins, but less energy than that of the 1996 and far less foreboding power than the Leoville 2000 or 2005. The finish was shorter than I would have expected. I recall liking the 1989 much more when tasted back in 2006, but have not tried that vintage since then. For the 1990 in March 2010, a disappointment, given the vintage's reputation.
