Lot #39. Léoville Barton 2005

Description: Consists of 6 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 96 AG.
"The 2005 Léoville-Barton is clearly one of the wines of the vintage. Powerful and strapping in the glass, the 2005 is a big, big wine. Huge swaths of tannin wrap around a core of inky black fruit, new leather, spice, gravel, mocha and licorice. The wine's sheer density is impressive, but its balance is even more compelling. I might be temped to give this another few years in the cellar. Readers lucky enough to own it will find a thrilling, potent Saint-Julien that overdelivers big time. I loved it." Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com, Apr 2021
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $900
