Friday, June 23, 2017 - A complete coincidence to be served blind against the 89 Leoville barton

An eerily similar nose, but a little more red fruited and perfumed than the elder Leoville Barton. Beautiful and understated with more finesse. Cassis, pencil shaving and some wet bricks. Drinking at peak. More grace and finesse than the Barton, maybe painted with a slightly finer brush. Both showing terrifically.
