2017 Ch. Leoville Barton, St Julien
HoldWell stockedVivino community 4.3/5
With more 2017 en-primeur releases from the upper echelons of Bordeaux expected this week, we’re excited to kick off Monday morning with a team (and personal) favourite. On a real run for the past few vintages, Ch. Léoville Barton has seen demand increase, year on year, over recent en-primeur campaigns.

Léoville Barton and the wine has gone from being a solid mid-league performing 2ème Cru Classé to one of the most exciting and scintillating wines in St. Julien. Ch. Léoville Barton's 48 h
