Tasting Notes

The 2016 La Réserve de Léoville Barton has a well-defined bouquet of crisp red fruit (strawberry and cranberry), plus touches of crushed stone tucked underneath. The medium-bodied palate offers light tannins and a fine bead of acidity. Quite elegant in style, with a precise finish. Classic Claret – no more, no less. Tasted blind at the Southwold tasting. 90/100 Vinous.

 

Pairs well with

Beef, Game (Deer, Venison), Poultry, Lamb

The rose of the summer!

Beautiful pale pink colour, aromas of citrus and red summer fruits, crisp and refreshing with lovely minerality and elegance to match.  The perfect wine for all those ‘al fresco’ lunches, dinners with friends and family this summer, also throughout the year.
