William Kelley im Februar 2024:
The 2021 Léoville Barton has turned out beautifully in bottle, wafting from the glass with notes of cassis and plums mingled with subtle hints of pencil shavings, menthol and spices. Medium to full-bodied, deep and impressively concentrated, it's layered and refined, built around lively acids and a chassis of sweet, powdery tannin that will reward some bottle age with greater plenitude. It's a real success. 94+
James Sucking im Mai 2022:
A medium-bodied red with redcurrant, crushed-stone and earth character, following through to fine tannins and a polished finish. Balanced.
Neal Martin
beschreibt den Wein "classic in Style" und er kann nicht erkennen warum von diesem Wein nicht ein paar Flaschen im Keller landen sollten.
