Why We're Buying
Château Langoa-Barton Saint Julien deserves more of the spotlight in the estate’s portfolio. The wine is smooth and rich with streaks of dark fruit and graphite, overachieving for its appellation. It doesn't hurt that it comes with a 20 to 30 aging window, too.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2013 Langoa Barton has a perfumed bouquet, touches of Asian spice and cedar infusing the black fruit, a touch of cold stone surfacing with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp, minerally red berry fruit, fine tension here with a simple, nicely balanced, fresh cedary finish. It could be described as a "workman-like" Langoa, but in a positive sense of the word. It does its job.
