Quite a bunch of vintages.
2018, 96 points. Warm and extreme. High Alcohol, Low acidity, ample tannins, relative lack of structure. Fruit is intense and immense. Keep. Her Langoa Barton 2018 is relatively free from the weakness described above because it tastes elegantly with excellent acidities.
2017, 92 points. Dry and irregular year. Blockage to total growth, however, they are always easy to drink and fresh, elegant and clean. To drink.
2016, 92 points. Dry, extreme, ripe fruit and tannins. Tight and lean fruit. Powerwwines.
2013, 86 points. Difficult vintage. But those who can make it get us fresh, easy wines with significant intensities. Excellent value.
2010, 99 points. Excellent vintage to keep and drink now. Ripe and abundant fruit.
2009 98 points. An excellent vintage with elegant fruit, balance and structure.
Deep ruby, tight garnet rim with bright violet reflections. Floral. Ripe wild cherry fruit underlaid with candied orange zest, delicate blackberries with fine and ample tannins, mineral notes on the finish, and chalky freshness. This 2015 bottle is an excellent vintage for Lagrange, allowing the fruit to develop to its potential. As a result, the palate has a proper depth of flavour and softness to the texture(tannins, Chaxckiness, and fresh ripe, crisp red berries that stands out in the glass—medium-bodied, Long finish.
94VertdeVin. The nose is aromatic, intense as well as relatively concentrated. It reveals notes of crushed blackberry, ripe / crushed wild strawberry and slight notes of cassis, mint, and violet combined with slight touches of Cuben pepper, spices, and toasted oak, as well as a touch of subtle/discreet hint of licorice and Bourbon vanilla. The mouth is fruity, juicy, and elegant. It offers a beautiful definition, depthless, gourmandize, a nice volume, a beautiful fat, a slight tension, a small acid frame (in the background), and a nice and slightly unctuous matter. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of fleshy/juicy strawberry, fleshy/juicy raspberry and cherry combined with hints of cassis, a very discreet hint of plum and subtle hints of licorice, cocoa and oak, as well as a subtle hint of black tea (on the finish). Good length and good persistence (touches of licorice… ).Edited.
95WE. One of the furthest west of the Saint-Julien estates, this property has been greatly improved with investment from Japanese owner Suntory. The wine from 2015 is dense and impressively concentrated, with perfumed black-currant fruits working well with the crisp acidity and solid structure. Drink from 2025. Edited.
Like 2005 and 2009, 2010 has a dark hue and a matt, tight, black-tinged, opaque core. The first nose offers plenty of ripe dark fruit; the second has gamey nuances. It is fresher than the 2009 and the 2005. Again, if you are looking for power, this differs. If
you are looking for fresh and natural fruit tones as well As Pessac Leognan 's classic elements offering aromas of espresso, tobacco, black raspberry, smoke and autumn leaves, this is the wine for you. The smooth, soft textures, forward personality and fresh, ripe berries make this already pleasurable to drink, and with some bottle age, it will get even better. And if you are particularly looking for a substance that helps to enhance the seam of appealingly ripe and sinewy tannins, this is the guy. Persistent and fleeting, the palate soothes with delicate flesh at first, although it is a bit less fat than expected, pleasingly textured throughout the tasting—some mileage. DD94.
The scores are good.
WE93. Fresh, citrus and spicy pear flavours, a wine laced with acidity, a crisp texture and an elegant bright aftertaste. Edited.
JS93. This is a wine that shows lots of chocolate, tobacco and currants. Full body, with velvety tannins and a long finish. All there. Edited.
RP92.From Helene Garcin, this blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Merlot displays classic tobacco leaf and smoky barbecue notes, rich black currants, and crushed rocks in a medium to full-bodied, seductive, attractively up-front style. It is a sleeper of the vintage. (RP) Edited.
