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. From the absolutely superb 2009 vintage, this is an enormously concentrated and statuesque release composed of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Merlot and 12% Cabernet Franc. If consuming soon then decanting is strongly recommended, otherwise this easily has the potential for several decades of cellaring.

The 2009 Langoa-Barton has a gorgeous bouquet with blackberry, bilberry, cedar and light tobacco aromas that blossom from the glass. This feels so composed and pure. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, fine-grain tannin, beautifully judged acidity and a svelte, languorous finish that fans out with style. What a gorgeous and utterly seductive Saint-Julien. It turns out to be Langoa Barton, a wine that I have rated very highly in the past. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners’ 2009 Bordeaux tasting.

Lovely aromatics, welcoming and enticing. A little more reserved on the palate than you might expect, this could do with a good long carafe if drinking now, to fully maximise the brambled blackberry fruits, star anise, cinnamon and tobacco leaf.
