Beschreibung

James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Leoville Barton 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:
Sweet berries, blackberries, raspberries and violets follow through to a full body with extremely creamy, polished tannins that caress the palate. It’s really long and polished. Gorgeous finish. Drink after 2025.

Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Leoville Barton 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:
Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2018 Léoville Barton needs a little swirling to coax out delicate notions of fresh blackberries, mulberries and cassis, plus touches of pencil shavings, clove oil, charcoal and black truffles. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers a great intensity of earth and mineral-laced black fruit flavors, supported by firm, ripe, grainy tannins and seamless freshness, finishing on a lingering ferrous note. Give it a good 4-5 years in bottle and drink it over the next 20 years+.

Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Leoville Barton 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:
The 2018 Léoville-Barton is a gorgeous, exotic wine. Crème de cassis, lavender, menthol, licorice and cloves race out of the glass. The 2018 marries the natural opulence of the year with a pretty classic sense of structure, making for one of the more compelling wines of the year. I would give this a good decade in the cellar. There is much to look forward to. I especially admire the energy and poise here.

Cassis, crushed plum and steeped blackberry fruit is all packed into this wine, along with tar, violet and roasted apple wood notes, plus a terrific tug of warm earth. Shows lots of energy in reserve, with a tightly knit finish pulling everything together. Cellaring required. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best from 2026 through 2040. 11,600 cases made. — JM

97 Punkte von Jeb Dunnuck für den Chateau Leoville Barton 2018 Saint Julien

Jeb Dunnuck:
This estate has been on fire in recent vintages, and the 2018 Château Léoville Barton is up there with the best of them. Based on 82% Cabernet Sauvignon and 18% Merlot that was brought up in 60% new French oak, this classic, flawlessly balanced, straight-up awesome Saint-Julien has loads of cassis and mulberry fruits as well as notes of freshly sharpened pencils, leafy tobacco, chocolate, and earth. Rich, medium to full-bodied, and concentrated on the palate, it has building tannins and healthy acidity, yet the fruit is pure, perfectly ripe, and wonderfully integrated with all the wine's components. As is normal with this cuvée, it closes down with extended air and is going to take a solid 8-10 years of bottle age to reach the early stages of maturity. It's going to evolve for 30-40 years in cold cellars.

This is very structured and powerful with lots of blueberry and blackcurrant character. Full-bodied and muscular with so much intensity and density. Extremely muscular. Yet. it’s agile.

Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Leoville Barton 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

Deep garnet-purple in color. the 2018 Leoville Barton simply sings of crushed black cherries. blackcurrant cordial and wild blueberries with touches of violets. dark chocolate. allspice and cardamom with a waft of stewed tea. Full-bodied. rich and decadently fruited in the mouth. the generous fruit has a solid structure of firm. ripe. grainy tannins and oodles of freshness. finishing long and layered.

Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Leoville Barton 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

The 2018 Leoville-Barton is fabulous. Graphite. gravel. crème de cassis. mint. violet. spice and exotic spices are some of the many notes that infuse this stunningly beautiful unctuous Saint-Julien. In 2018 Leoville-Barton has an extra dimension of volume and resonance. yet it never loses its super-classic mid-weight structure and regal bearing. The blend is 82% Cabernet Sauvignon and 18% Merlot.

James Mothels bewertet den Chateau Gloria 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:
There's lots here. with raspberry. blackberry. currant and blueberry fruit all playing a role. along with lively briar and licorice snap notes. An apple wood frame keeps the elements in line.

Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Gloria 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:
The 2018 Gloria is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc, aged for approximately 14 months in oak barriques, 40% new. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, it sashays out of the glass with flamboyant notes of kirsch, black raspberries and cassis, plus hints of potpourri, unsmoked cigars and star anise. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers a good amount of juicy black and red fruit flavors, backed up by slightly chewy tannins and just enough freshness, finishing spicy

93 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Chateau Gloria 2018 Saint Julien

NEAL MARTIN im März 2021:
Gloria is once again fabulous. Brisk and vibrant. the 2018 has so much to offer. The 2018 is a bit more linear than other recent vintages (such as the 2016) but it nevertheless has a lot to offer. Bright red cherry. cedar. tobacco. spice and floral notes pulse with tremendous energy. The tannins need a few years in bottle to unwind. but there is so much to look forward to. The blend is 60% Cabernet Sauvignon. 32% Merlot. 5% Petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc. Tasted four times.

Antonio Galloni im März 2021:
The 2018 Gloria has turned out beautifully. Medium in body, with terrific balance and tons of class, Gloria will especially appeal to readers in search of a wine that is not super-exuberant, as so many 2018s are. Bright floral notes, blood orange and red berry fruit all run through this wonderfully expressive Saint-Julien. Give the tannins at least a few years to soften.

Chateau Talbot 2018 Saint Julien

Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Talbot 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2018 Talbot features notions of baked blackcurrants, stewed plums and bouquet garni with hints of tilled soil, tobacco leaf and pencil lead. The medium-bodied palate is softly textured with bags of juicy black fruits supported by chewy tannins and just enough freshness, finishing savory.

James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Talbot 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

Rich aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, chocolate, tobacco and licorice. Oyster shell, too. It’s full-bodied with firm, well integrated tannins. Polished, silky layers with a long finish. Gorgeous ripe and bright fruit in the center palate. Best in a long time. Try from 2025

Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Talbot 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

The 2018 Talbot is quite the powerhouse. Inky and deep, the 2018 possesses striking textural richness from start to finish. Inky dark fruit, licorice, cloves, new leather, menthol, violet and chocolate fill out the layers effortlessly in this decidedly flashy Saint-Julien. This is a terrific effort for Technical Director Jean-Michel Laporte in his first vintage at Talbot. It will be interesting to see where the château goes in future years. This is certainly an opulent, rich style.

James Mothels bewertet den Chateau Talbot 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

Shows range. with cassis. blueberry and plum fruit and a nice snap of licorice throughout. Fleshy. but with latent drive on the finish. A concentrated. solid wine.

Chateau Langoa Barton 2019 Saint Julien

James Suckling über den Chateau Langoa Barton 2019 Saint Julien:
6 Dec, 2021 – Plenty of blackberry, currant and floral aromas. Some mint as well, following through to a full-bodied palate with layers of ultra-fine tannins and wonderful length. This is sophisticated and beautifully crafted with style and personality, displaying its terroir. Extremely well done. Drink after 2025.

William Kelley im April 2022:
BEST EVER im Wineadvocate
A timely classic for patient readers with cold cellars, the 2019 Langoa Barton is performing beautifully in bottle, unwinding in the glass with a rich bouquet of cassis, plums, cigar wrapper, pencil shavings and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, deep and elegantly muscular, its concentrated core of fruit is framed by lively acids and ripe, powdery tannins that assert themselves on the youthfully firm finish. Forget it for a decade and reap the rewards for the following four.

93 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Chateau Langoa Barton 2019 Saint Julien

Antonio Galloni (Vinous) bewertet den Chateau Langoa Barton 2019 Saint Julien:
The 2019 Langoa-Barton is every bit as delicious as it was from barrel. The purity of the flavors is just striking. Inky red fruit, blood orange, spice, mint and pomegranate are pushed forward. This is an especially succulent, richly textured Langoa, and that's not a bad thing for a wine that in some vintages is a bit light.

Und Neal Martin (Vinous) zum Chateau Langoa Barton 2019 Saint Julien:
The 2019 Langoa Barton has closed down a little on the nose since I tasted it from barrel, offering blackberry, black olive and sandalwood, quite pastille-like in style. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and beautiful definition but less structure than I remember out of barrel. Quite saline toward the finish, with a dash of white pepper. A delicious, classically-styled Langoa-Barton. Very fine. 13.92% alcohol

Für den Wine Spectator verköstigte James Molesworth den Chateau Langoa Barton 2019 Saint Julien:
Ripe and juicy, with a youthfully compact core of steeped plum, blueberry and black currant fruit. The finish is scored by violet and singed apple wood notes, with a tug of tar peeking in as well. Offers ample fruit and inner freshness, so this should open up soon enough. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2025 through 2038. 7,950 cases made.

Cuvee: 62Cabernet Sauvignon / 35 Merlot / 3 Petit Verdot Erntezeitpunkt: Zwischen 29. September und 10. Oktober Dicht und sehr konzentriert, ungewöhnlich im Vergleich in der Appellation.

James Mothels bewertet den La Croix Ducru Beaucaillou 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

The solid core of kirsch and plum sauce flavors is laced with apple wood and graphite notes. Direct and well-built.

Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den La Croix Ducru Beaucaillou 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

This is not a second wine as such, because it comes from a dedicated part of the vineyard. located on the south bank of La Mouline. The 2018 La Croix de Beaucaillou is a blend of 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot, to be aged 12 months in 60% new barriques. It has a pH of 3.75. 15% alcohol and an IPT (total polyphenol index) of 96. Deep garnet-purple colored, it is a little closed and broody to begin, offering subtle notions of fertile loam, tobacco, truffles and cast iron pan with a core of crème de cassis, blackberry compote and boysenberries with hints of underbrush and bay leaves. Full. rich and seductive in the mouth, it has firm. rounded tannins and just enough freshness to lift the dense fruit to a long finish.

Antonio Galloni bewertet den La Croix Ducru Beaucaillou 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

The 2018 La Croix Ducru-Beaucaillou is an outrageously beautiful. vivid wine. Gravel, crushed rocks, menthol, lavender, espresso, licorice and dark spice all infuse a racy, sumptuous Saint-Julien loaded with personality and class. In 2018 La Croix is especially fine. Ample, voluptuous and racy to the core, the 2018 is stunning in its beauty. I can't wait to taste it from bottle. The 2018 is 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot. Tasted two times.

James Mothels bewertet den Chateau Saint Pierre 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

Very fresh and pure, with plum and cassis notes that are vivid and focused. Light graphite and anise accents line the finish. Solid.

Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Saint Pierre 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

The deep garnet-purple colored 2018 Saint-Pierre displays shy scents of rose hip tea, dried mint. crushed rocks and lavender to begin, opening out to a growing core of warm blackcurrants, baked blackberries and Morello cherries plus wafts of garrigue and wild sage. Full-bodied and absolutely laden with black fruits and provocative mineral sparks, it has a firm texture of grainy tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing long and savory. Aging is anticipated to be for 14 months in 50% new and 50% second-fill barrels. The blend is currently 77% Cabernet Sauvignon and 23% Merlot.

Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Saint Pierre 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

A powerful, virile wine, the 2018 Saint-Pierre is also one of the highlights of the vintage. Black cherry, graphite, smoke, leather, menthol, violet and spice meld together in a brooding, tannic Saint-Julien that is going to need a bit of time to truly come into its own. Saint-Pierre is muscular, massively tannic and forbidding, and yet there is a ton of fruit behind all of that structure. Cabernet Sauvignon features heavily in the blend, and that comes through in the wine's flavor profile and overall feel. Readers will have to be patient. I can't wait to taste it from bottle. The 2018 is 77% Cabernet Sauvignon and 23% Merlot. Tasted four times.

Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2018 Saint Julien

Christian Balog beschreibt den Wein wie folgt:

Dicht und kompakt, mit ganz leichter Aufhellung zum Rand hin. Die Nase ist komplex, tiefgründich. rauchige Nuancen. Am Gaumen sehr satt und einnehmend, fantastisch das Zusammenspiel von Power und Frische. Klebt am Gaumen, endlos lang. 96-99 Punkte.

James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

OMG. This shows amazing depth of fruit and density. Full-bodied and so layered with incredible fruit and power. Blackberries, Blueberries, Violets. Hints of dried flowers. Fantastic fruit and tannins, yet agile and energetic. The château says 2016 plus. plus.

Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

The 2018 Leoville Las Cases is a rich, sumptuous, exotic wine in 2018. Plush fruit and suave, silky tannins give the 2018 a level of textural richness that is unusual for a young Leoville Las Cases. Crème de cassis, lavender, mint and sweet spice all build in this extraordinarily beautiful wine. I can't recall tasting a young Las Cases with this much immediacy and sheer allure. The 2018 Las Cases has a very bright future. It is also one of the unquestioned stars of the vintage. In 2018, the blend is 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc and 9% Merlot.

Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

“We produced great Cabernet Franc this year.” Directeur General Pierre Graffeuille told me during my visit to Leoville Las Cases. Even though only 3% of the press wine was added back, he was also absolutely glowing about the quality of this, too. And he should be—the finished blend for the 2018 Leoville Las Cases is yet another triumph for this great estate. Composed of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc and 9% Merlot, harvested September 15 to October 4 with yields of 35.5 hectoliters per hectare, it has 14.49% alcohol and will be aged in barriques. 90% new. Very deep purple-black in color, it is a little closed to begin, slowly emerging from the glass to reveal subtle woodsmoke, violets, tilled soil and underbrush scents over a core of warm cassis, wild blueberries and redcurrant jelly plus hints of rare beef and iron ore. Full-bodied, rich, super concentrated and bursting with latent energy, this is an atomic bomb waiting to go off in your mouth. It has a rock-solid foundation of firm, very ripe, very finely grained tannins and bold freshness supporting the muscular fruit through the epically long, amazingly nuanced finish. Simply breathtaking.

97-100 Punkte im Winespectator für den Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2018 Saint Julien

James Mothels bewertet den Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

This is backward and dense, with thickly layered plum, blackberry, fig and blueberry reduction flavors wrapped liberally in warm ganache and melted licorice notes. A long echo of smoldering charcoal emerges at the very end. There's a lot to resolve here as the rich and austere sides are still melding, but the extra amplitude doesn't distort anything; it just all goes to 11.

Chateau Leoville Barton 2019 Saint Julien

William Kelley im April 2022:
Like its stablemate Langoa Barton, the 2019 Léoville Barton is a timeless classic, made for patient connoisseurs. Offering up aromas of blackcurrants, plums, pencil shavings and licorice, it's full-bodied, deep and concentrated, its deep core of fruit framed by a chassis of rich, powdery tannin that makes itself felt on the youthfully firm finish. While it's clearly built for the long haul, its structural seamlessness and mid-palate plenitude mark it out as one of the finest wines from this château in recent times. Could it be a more concentrated modern-day version of Anthony Barton's brilliant 1985?

Jeb Dunnuck im April 2022:
The flagship 2019 Château Léoville Barton is brilliant, showing both the style of the estate as well as the vintage beautifully. It's never the biggest or richest wine, yet it has a classic, vibrant, structured style that ages beautifully. Pure cassis, black currants, scorched earth, new leather, and graphite are just some of its nuances, and it's medium to full-bodied, with a lively spine of acidity, beautiful overall balance, and a great finish. This textbook Léoville Barton demands a decade of bottle age and will keep for 30-40 years.

James Suckling über den Chateau Leoville Barton 2019 Saint Julien:
Currants, sweet fruit and fresh flowers on the nose. Medium-to full-bodied with firm, silky tannins that are chewy and powerful. Long and muscular, yet in a toned and polished way. Try after 2026.

Antonio Galloni (Vinous) bewertet den Chateau Leoville Barton 2019 Saint Julien:
The 2019 Léoville Barton is so impressive. Rich and heady in the glass, the 2019 offers up a beguiling mix of dark fruit intermingled with scents to tobacco, gravel, pencil shavings, leather, licorice, scorched earth and cloves. Today, Léoville Barton is decidedly virile, imposing and in need of cellaring. It is also hugely impressive. Léoville Barton is one of the first Bordeaux I tasted, many years ago. It remains a favorite for its combination of quality, personality and fair price, all values the late Anthony Barton championed during his long and distinguished career.

95 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Chateau Leoville Barton 2019 Saint Julien

Und Neal Martin (Vinous) zum Chateau Leoville Barton 2019 Saint Julien:
The 2019 Léoville Barton has a gorgeous bouquet, very delineated and quite mineral-driven, offering blackberry and briary scents, a whiff of freshly rolled tobacco and a hint of orange rind. The beautifully balanced palate features sappy black fruit and fine acidity, quite gentle at first but developing wonderful poise and weight toward the finish. I adore the way this grows in the glass but retains an appealing spiciness on the aftertaste. Superb. A testament to the late, great Anthony Barton. 13.88% alcohol

Für den Wine Spectator verköstigte James Molesworth den Chateau Leoville Barton 2019 Saint Julien:
A strapping young wine, offering notes of blackberry paste, plum preserves and black currant coulis that show energy throughout, with plentiful bramble, tar and licorice root accents. There’s a mouthwatering echo of apple wood at the very end, with a flash of violet adding a hint of purity. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best from 2025 through 2042. 11,850 cases made.

Chateau Leoville Barton 2020 Saint Julien

James Molsworth beschreibt ihn im Januar 2023 wie folgt:
A bold, strapping young wine, with vivid plum, cassis, kirsch and black licorice notes that meld steadily as they cruise through, carried by a bolt of graphite and finishing with a flourish of violet, anise and apple wood. Mouthwatering in the end. Built for the cellar. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best from 2030 through 2045. 9,100 cases made.

Die Degustationsnotiz des Wine Advocate zum Chateau Leoville Barton 2020 Saint Julien :
A superb wine, the 2020 Léoville Barton exhibits generous aromas of blackberries and crème de cassis mingled with hints of licorice, pencil shavings and classy new oak. Medium to full-bodied, broad and fleshy, with a concentrated core of fruit, sweet tannins and a nicely defined finish, it bears some similarities with the estate's demonstrative 2000 vintage, even if the two growing seasons were quite different. I suspect it will tighten up with more time in bottle, hence the plus sign next to my score, but right now, the 2020 is unusually accessible out of the gates.

James Suckling schreibt zum Chateau Leoville Barton 2020 Saint Julien Folgendes:
Aromas of dark berries, ash, tar, blackcurrants and lead pencil, following through to a medium to full body, with firm and integrated tannins and a medium, chewy finish. Needs four to six years to soften and come together. Very tight and nicely structured. Try in 2027 and onwards.

Das meint die Vinous-Mannschaft um Antonio Galloni zum Chateau Leoville Barton 2020:
The 2020 Léoville Barton was picked September 15–16 and matured in 70% new oak. It is one of the best vintages that I have encountered in barrel. Wow! This shoots from the glass with beautifully defined black fruit, mineral-rich aromas, pixelated with laser-like focus. The palate is medium-bodied with chiseled tannins, a perfect line of acidity, layers of vibrant, vivacious black fruit and a very persistent finish that is pure class. If you don’t have this in your cellar, then there will be a Léoville Barton–shaped hole to fill.

Le Macchiole Bolgheri Rosso 2020 DOC

Im Weingut Le Macchiole gibt es so manche Sensation: ob der reine Cabernet Franc Paleo, den Kult-Merlot Messorio oder den sortenreinen Syrah Scrio. All diese Weine gehören zum besten Ihrer Art kosten aber leider auch den ein oder anderen Euro. Der Toskanafan freut sich über den Bolgheri Rosso von Le Macchiole, denn der vereint von allem etwas. So auch der Le Macchiole Bolgheri Rosso 2020. Er wird aus den Rebsorten Merlot, Cabernet und Syrah gekeltert und stimmt alles: die satte Frucht und die super reifen Tannine machen grosse Trinkfreude, doch der Bolgheri Rosso 2020 von Le Macchiole ist immer noch frisch und mit der nötigen Finesse ausgestattet, er hat einfach alles was ein Wein in dieser Klasse braucht.

James Suckling beschreibt den Le Macchiole Bolgheri Rosso 2020 am Juli 2022 wie folgt:

Grilled herbs, orange zest, black plums, cherries, peach stones and peppercorns on the nose. Medium-bodied with creamy tannins. It’s deliciously round and fruity, yet firm, with a long and polished finish. Merlot, cabernet franc, cabernet sauvignon and syrah. So drinkable already. Drink or hold.

Monica Larner beschreibt den Le Macchiole Bolgheri Rosso 2020 im Juli 2022 wie folgt:

The Le Macchiole 2020 Bolgheri Rosso is 50% Merlot, 20% Syrah, 15% Cabernet Franc, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon. This is a powerhouse wine that has become a steady little engine for the estate economy, growing from a production of 36,000 bottles to 140,000 bottles made annually today. This vintage does a terrific balancing act with dark fruit and concentration on the one hand and an accessible easy-drinking personality on the other. Black fruit cedes to baked brioche, spice and toasted aniseed. The wine finishes for 10 months in a combination of second, third and fourth-year barrique, and about 30% of the total goes into cement. The finish is polished and fresh, and you get good value.
