Chateau Leoville Barton 1996 is an outstanding Bordeaux that impressively reflects the tradition of one of the most renowned wineries in the Saint-Julien region. The 1996 vintage is known for its elegant balance and complex structure, underscored by the winery's careful aging and craftsmanship. This Bordeaux highlight captivates with its deep red, garnet color and a bouquet that combines notes of cassis, blackberry, graphite, and subtle tobacco nuances. On the palate, the wine presents a harmonious balance, perfectly integrated tannins, and lively acidity that underscores the aromas of black currant, cedarwood, and dark chocolate. Its complexity and velvety texture make it a special experience that will fully develop its drinking maturity by around 2030. For an optimal tasting experience, decanting for 1–2 hours is recommended to fully open the complex aromas.

The Chateau Leoville Barton 1996 is the perfect accompaniment to aged cheese, lamb stew, or game dishes. This flagship wine from an exceptional vintage is ideal for connoisseurs seeking an elegant, long-lasting Bordeaux. The balance between fruit, tannin, and acidity makes it a versatile companion for special occasions or an exclusive wine tasting. Immerse yourself in the world of French wine enjoyment and enjoy this magnificent Bordeaux experience that will delight both connoisseurs and collectors. Don't miss this wine highlight—an absolute must for wine lovers who value quality and history.

LIFE BEFORE...

Where possible, and especially with larger wine cellar purchases, the wine cellars of the previous owners tell us a lot about the storage conditions of the wines. A professionally managed wine cellar usually guarantees perfect storage conditions for the wines. We acquire our wines exclusively from reputable, mostly private wine collectors.

HIDDEN FEATURES

Many high-quality wines today feature various security features for authentication, such as markings that only become visible under UV light. We check and compare all purchased wines for these features using an extensive database, and if there is even the slightest doubt, we reject the wine.

THE DETAILS MATTER

We examine wine labels under a microscope to determine their quality, and we check the printed image for any peculiarities that are typical for a particular winery, wine, or vintage. We draw on a large image database to identify any anomalies.

COLOR MAKES THE DIFFERENCE

Last but not least, we also examine the wine's composition. Color, turbidity, sediment, and the bubbles in a champagne reveal a lot about the wine's or champagne's condition and potential drinking pleasure.
