On the palate, tannins give a dry core to the wine. It is ripe, but with a great freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e94pts Jeb Dunnuck\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReleased in a special bottle celebrating the château's 200-year anniversary, the 2021 Château Langoa Barton checks in as 61% Cabernet Sauvignon, 36% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc, with the élevage spanning 18 months in 60% new barrels. It offers a healthy purple\/plum hue to go with impressive depth and richness in its darker currants, spicy oak, and cedar pencil\/graphite-like aromatics. With medium-bodied richness, terrific mid-palate depth, and a broad, layered, mouth-filling texture, it deserves 4-6 years of bottle age and will cruise over the following two decades in cold cellars. It's another terrific wine from this château. Tasted twice with consistent notes.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e93pts Decanter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn expressive nose full of dark fruit, spiced and herbal elements. Clean and clear, juicy and lively, more of a light, lean delicate take, everything is there just a subtle version of the blackcurrant and strawberries, acidity and tannin profile. I do like it though, it's well made and still has an enjoyable juicy core and long finish. Likely to be extremely pleasant and easy to drink in a few years still with typicity. Same score as Primeurs but this was lovely to taste again.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e93pts James Suckling\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComplex yet subtle aromas of currants, tar, lead pencil, redwood, violets and blackberries follow through to a medium body, with ultrafine tannins and a crunchy and vivid finish.

The aromatics have actually moved up a step since I tasted it from barrel: intense blackberry and wild strawberry fruit, crushed violet and just a hint of eucalyptus. The oak is neatly integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with surprisingly plush black fruit, a suave and harmonious Langoa with a dash of spice toward the finish. This is packed full of flavor and will be difficult to resist in its youth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWinemaker Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlend:\u003c\/strong\u003e 61% Cabernet Sauvignon, 36% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Southern Wine \u0026 Spirits","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53678230208876,"sku":"3660327022016","price":64.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2424\/3053\/products\/chateau-langoa-barton-saint-julien-2020-750ml-744519.jpg?v=1692029888","url":"https:\/\/redneckwinecompany.com\/products\/chateau-langoa-barton-saint-julien-2021-750ml","provider":"Redneck Wine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
