商品説明

レオヴィル三兄弟のの一角「レオヴィル・バルトン」!

レオヴィル・バルトンは、その兄弟にあたるランゴア・バルトンより優れていると一般的には思われている。2つのシャトーはともにアントニ・バルトンが所有している。ほかの所有者たちと違って、バルトンはブレンドに、しなやかで肉付きのよいメルロをごくわずかしか使わない(1980年代半ばの植え付けの結果、その割合は20%に引き上げられたが)一方で、カベルネ・ソーヴィニョンの割合はサン・ジュリアンの村のみならず、メドック全般においても高い。

隣のレオヴィル・ポワフェレと同じく、1820年代までラス・カーズ侯爵の広大な領地の一部でした。その後、名門シャトー・ランゴアを手に入れたヒュー・バルトンが、1826年に侯爵の旧領地の1/4に当たる畑を入手し、現在でもバルトン家によって伝統的なタイプのワインを造り続けています。

「レオヴィル・バルトン」は、ワインは香り高いアロマと重過ぎずまとまりの良い味わいというサン・ジュリアンの美点をしっかりと備えたスタイルです。特にカベルネ・ソーヴィニヨンの比率が高く、筋肉質でクラシックな仕上がりが特徴。パーカー氏によれば、「メドックでもっとも適正な価格がついたワインの一つ」とのこと。

The 2019 Pichon-Longueville Baron will go down as one of this ch?teau's great wines of the modern era, along with 2016, 2010 and 1989. Unfurling in the glass with aromas of cassis and plums mingled with notions of cigar wrapper, sweet loamy soil and violets, it's full-bodied, velvety and layered, with superb concentration, lively acids and rich, powdery tannins. Perfumed and resonant, this is a profound young Pauillac that bears more of a resemblance to its neighbor Ch?teau Latour than to Pichon Lalande this year. Pichon Baron was one of the great deals of the en primeur campaign, and readers who purchased futures are to be congratulated on their foresight.

The numbers speak for themselves: until 2000, Pichon-Longueville Baron produced some 350,000 bottles per year; since 2001, that figure has fallen to 160,000. Managing director Christian Seely's first decision on arriving at the property was to reduce production, focusing the grand vin on Cabernet Sauvignon growing on the deep gravel terraces opposite Ch?teau Latour that have always been the heart of this historic estate and which were the source of the great duo of 1989 and 1990 before being joined by other holdings after a series of acquisitions in the early 1990s. The results speak for themselves in the form of a series of excellent vintages, and things improved further with the construction of a new barrel cellar in 2006, permitting better temperature control and more precision during ?levage. In style, Pichon Baron these days has more in common stylistically with the depth and structure of Latour than it does with the perfumed sensuality of its sibling, Pichon Lalande; and in quality, it's clearly one of contemporary Bordeaux's greatest wines. It's hard to know whether 2010, 2016 or 2019 will emerge as the best Pichon Baron of the decade?and of Seely's tenure up to the time of writing?but what is certain is that the 2019 is a striking wine that any Bordeaux lover would want to have in their cellar.

The vivid purple, almost blue-hued 2019 Chateau Leoville Barton is a Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated wine that includes 16% Merlot. It will spend 18 months in a mix of new and used barrels. Classic Barton notes of cassis, scorched earth, burning embers, new leather, and violets emerge from the glass, and this beauty is full-bodied, massively concentrated, and structured on the palate, yet it has a beautiful elegance as well as a plushness in its texture. Nevertheless, it's not for those seeking instant gratification and is going to need 10-15 years of bottle age to hit maturity. It reminds me of the 1990 and is a great, great wine in the making. If you love Leoville Barton, don't miss this wine! 97-99+ (6/2020)

Wine Enthusiast: 97-99 ポイント
A very fine, rich and structured wine, this has all the hallmarks of one of the stars of this vintage. Packed with rounded tannins and rich black fruits, the wine is impressively concentrated in layers of blackberry flavors and lifted acidity. Expect this wine to age for many years. (RV) (6/2020)

The 2019 Leoville Barton is so impressive. Rich and heady in the glass, the 2019 offers up a beguiling mix of dark fruit intermingled with scents to tobacco, gravel, pencil shavings, leather, licorice, scorched earth and cloves. Today, Leoville Barton is decidedly virile, imposing and in need of cellaring. It is also hugely impressive. Leoville Barton is one of the first Bordeaux I tasted, many years ago. It remains a favorite for its combination of quality, personality and fair price, all values the late Anthony Barton championed during his long and distinguished career. Antonio Galloni.
