Château Langoa-Barton Saint-Julien 3ème Grand Cru Classé Rouge 2009 - Original Wood Case of 12 bottles

Chateau Langoa-Barton Saint-Julien 3eme Grand Cru Classe Red 2009

73.80 € Tax included

2009, an exceptional vintage for Château Langoa Barton, 3rd Grand Cru Classé of Saint-Julien. Excellent climatic conditions with a dry and hot summer, the coolness of the night to protect the fruit, the acidity and colour of the grapes and the harvest dreamed of from September 23rd onwards with dry weather, sunny days and cool nights, allowing the grapes to reach optimal ripeness.

It offers a complex, rich and opulent substance, with beautiful vegetal notes of hyacinth and hawthorn and a dense structure with tasty tannins. A great wine for laying down that you can start tasting, but it is preferable to keep it patiently for a few more years in the cellar to discover it.
