"Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2018 Léoville Barton simply sings of crushed black cherries, blackcurrant cordial and wild blueberries with touches of violets, dark chocolate, allspice and cardamom with a waft of stewed tea. Full-bodied, rich and decadently fruited in the mouth, the generous fruit has a solid structure of firm, ripe, grainy tannins and oodles of freshness, finishing long and layered."

"The Cabernet Franc makes its appearance here in greater quantity than in some of the other Maltus wines, bringing the alcohol level down a little and giving some gorgeous definition and lift. It won´t surprise you that it makes this my favourite of the Maltus line up. It has clear minerality and seductively sweet cassis and blackberry jam flavours, joined by chocolate, slate and plenty of exotic spice. These wines have impact and personality, and this powerful example is the best. Harvested between 1 and 10 October. 80% new oak used for both malolactic fermentation and ageing. 3.76pH."

"82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot. 60% new oak. Barrel sample.
Black core, purple rim. Sweet intense nose of elderberry and small, wild berries. Extremely wholesome, dense, firm but with lots of fruit at the core. Oak well in check and the tannins finer than many, dry and layered but harmonious. For the long term. Dry and almost chalky on the finish."

"Deep in color, the aromatic quality reminds me of a basket filled with just picked black currants along with cigar wrapper, tobacco, herbs and cedar. Full-bodied, dense, concentrated and long, the wine straddles a wonderful place between firmness, classical austerity, freshness and ripe fruits. You will need to offer this wine over a decade of age before pulling a cork. It is going to be difficult to pick the best vintage of Leoville Barton from the 2009, 2010, 2015, 2016 and 2018 but it is going to be fun tasting them together over the next several decades. Blending 82% Cabernet Sauvignon and 18% Merlot, the wine reached 14.03.% alcohol and is aging in 60% new, French oak barrels."

"Ma meilleure note donnée à ce cru en primeur.
Couleur intense, pourpre, belle et profonde. Nez intense, au fruité pur, frais et mûr. Minutieux à l'attaque, suave au développement, tout de suite aromatique, le vin se
développe sur un toucher gras et un profil ascendant. Il grandit en seconde partie du palais pour s'achever sur des tannins mûrs, une texture sèveuse, des arômes frais, beaucoup de parfum et des tannins très bien enveloppés. De la profondeur. C'est très bon. Assemblage : 82 % cabernet sauvignon, 18 % merlot. Degré d'alcool : 14°3 (moyenne plus). Rendement : 42 hl/ha. 2030 – 2050"

"This is very structured and powerful with lots of blueberry and blackcurrant character. Full-bodied and muscular with so much intensity and density. Extremely muscular. Yet, it’s agile."

"Incorporating 11% Cabernet Franc, the Merlot-dominated 2018 Château Larcis Ducasse come from an 11.5-hectare parcel of clay and limestone soils, on the south facing hillside just outside of Saint-Émilion, and there are only 2,400 cases made, which equates to 72% of the total production. This deeply colored beauty offers a thrilling blue fruit quality as well as complex violets, graphite, and a liquid rock-like minerality. It´s deep and thrillingly pure, with fine tannins and a beautiful finish. This is an incredible terroir, and the estate has been firing on all cylinders thanks to the talents of Nicolas Thienpont and David Suire. Give bottles 4-5 years (if you can) and it will keep for 30-40 years if you’re so inclined."

"A stunner, showing a great degree of purity, with long flavors of cassis, plum and blackberry preserves, seamlessly integrated with the graphite structure. A very vivid, defined, precise wine."

"The 2018 Léoville-Barton is fabulous. Graphite, gravel, crème de cassis, mint, violet, spice and exotic spices are some of the many notes that infuse this stunningly beautiful unctuous Saint-Julien. In 2018 Léoville-Barton has an extra dimension of volume and resonance, yet it never loses its super-classic mid-weight structure and regal bearing. The blend is 82% Cabernet Sauvignon and 18% Merlot."
