The 2016 Mauvesin Barton has an attractive, quite open bouquet of crushed violet and potpourri scents; red fruit (raspberry and wild strawberry) emerges with time. The well-balanced palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins rendering it lithe in the mouth, leading into a spicy and quite persistent finish. Delightful.

A project by the Barton-Sartorius family of Léoville-Barton. Refined with a perfumed, floral bouquet. Round and seductive; tannins finely edged. Score: 91 James Lawther MW, Decanter.com Maturity: 2021-2030 01 October 2019 |

From the team of Léoville Barton, the 2016 Mauvesin Barton is mostly Merlot yet includes 28% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Cabernet Franc and 7% Petit Verdot. It’s a flowery, tobacco, leafy herbs, and spicy effort that has plenty of black cherry fruits, medium body, moderate tannins, and terrific balance. It’s a charming, elegant Moulis to drink over the coming decade or so. Score: 90 Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com Maturity: 2019-2029 28 February 2019 |
