APPELLATION : SAINT-JULIEN
200 years of history in Bordeaux. The Barton family’s passion for wine is reflected in the elegance and consistency of Château Léoville Barton. This estate was classified as a 2nd Grand Cru Classé in 1855 and lies within the iconic terroir of Saint Julien in Médoc. The roots of the Barton soul are found in this château in Saint Julien, concealing a thousand and one secrets. The château was built in 1758 by Monsieur de Pontet, with the unique feature of possessing beneath the private apartments a barrel-ageing cellar in the form of a vaulted crypt where all is silence and serenity. Peacefully, slowly, the finest vintages of Léoville Barton reach perfection.
