The original owner Hugh Barton bought Chateau Langoa in 1821 and although it has never been so broadly recognised, still offers seriously exciting wines that need to be celebrated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"\u003cspan\u003eTar, cloves, girolle mushrooms, with intense black fruits that are met by fresher red fruits, ensuring nother is too overpowering. This is a great vintage at Langoa, has the intensity that will please the crowds but the delicacy and St Julien finesse that makes it true to itself. First year for technical director François Brehant. 70% new oak.\u003c\/span\u003e.\"\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e94 points, Jane Anson, JaneAnson.com (March 2022)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"\u003cspan\u003eThe 2009 Langoa-Barton has a gorgeous bouquet with blackberry, bilberry, cedar and light tobacco aromas that blossom from the glass. This feels so composed and pure. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, fine-grain tannin, beautifully judged acidity and a svelte, languorous finish that fans out with style. What a gorgeous and utterly seductive Saint-Julien. It turns out to be Langoa Barton, a wine that I have rated very highly in the past. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners’ 2009 Bordeaux tasting.
