I think I prefer Barton in “off” years because there is a pleasing rusticity to them and also you can drink them before 30 years. Quite juicy in fact. Very graphite and CS heavy. Bit of stem character but being Barton there are zero stems. Should have decanted this way longer but needs must.

This was second bottle of these I’ve had, served tonite in a flight of 05,06,14,18,19,20. The 06 and 05 were so similiar however the 05 was slightly better on the finish and gave it a slight more edge in the head to head.

Excellent - better than the previous time we drank a bottle. Smooth and well balanced (fruit and tannins) - tasted against La Lagune 2006 and this one was fuller and more balanced

Decanted for 5 hours. The colour is still youthful, with a touch of purple; with air, the wine opens up to provide, elegant, creamy, blackcurrant fruit, quite intense and with good length. Can be drunk now but is probably 5 to 10 years from its peak.
