Chateau Langoa Barton Saint-Julien 3. Cru Classé 2020 i trækasse

Jeb Dunnuck

Loads of red and black currants, lead pencil shavings, tobacco, and dried flower notes emerge from the 2020 Château Langoa Barton, a gorgeous looking 2020 offering medium to full-bodied richness, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It has the concentrated, backward vibe of the vintage yet brings remarkable opulence and texture. It's impressive.

VV Wine

(53.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38% Merlot, 8.5% Cabernet Franc) Wonderful nose, open like a barn door, dark fruits, herbs, floral notes, tobacco, ripe blackberries, raspberries, cassis, a complex nose. Full-bodied, juicy, crisp and fresh on the palate, the wine has a slightly creamy texture and a good melt, while remaining elegant and very balanced, the tannins of excellent quality, the acidity invigorating - the wine is 100% balanced and has a long finish on ripe raspberries. A very successful Langoa!

Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider

Spicy, sweet, fresh, vibrant aromas of currants, cedar, cigar box, herbs and spice meld perfectly with the powerful, ripe, long, waves of red fruits. Here you find, bite, and crispness to the fruit, a full-body with grainy tannins needing time to expand and soften. The finish, with its tobacco, red currant, cranberry and spice keeps on going. Give this a decade and it should really start to shine.

Robert Parker

Sporting a deep purple-black color, the 2020 Langoa Barton needs a little swirling to unlock youthfully muted scents of warm cassis, black cherry preserves and boysenberries, plus hints of menthol, graphite, tilled soil and bouquet garni. The medium-bodied palate is delicately played with impressive freshness delivered by the red berry and herbal sparks within a black-fruit core, with grainy tannins to support, finishing long and invigorating.
