The 1982 Langoa Barton is a wine that I have a sentimental attachment to since I shared a bottle with Anthony Barton many moons ago. It offers dark berry fruit mixed with hints of oyster shell and mint. Fine delineation, though surprisingly high-toned given the Saint-Julien in question (more like a modern-day Poyferré!) The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, veins of blue fruit, tobacco and graphite. Quite toothsome on the finish, this is rather a bold Langoa that lacks a bit of finesse but delivers plenty of substance. Tasted at the 1982 Dinner at Hatched. Neal Martin27th September 2022

Château Langoa-Barton is a 3ème Grand Cru Classé estate situated in Saint-Julien and is well-known for producing incredibly traditional and formidably tannic wines. The château has been in the Barton family for eight generations, a sister estate to the famous Léoville Barton.

The 20 hectares of vineyard are planted on classic gravel / clay soils and plantings are split between Cabernet Sauvignon (71%), Merlot (21%) and Cabernet Franc (8%). The wine is aged for around 18 months in 50% new oak using example the same techniques employed at Leoville Barton.
