Description
Château Langoa-Barton (archaically named Pontet Langlois) is a winery in the Saint-Julien appellation of the Bordeaux region of France. Château Langoa-Barton is also the name of the red wine produced by this property. The wine produced here was classified as one of fourteen Troisièmes Crus (Third Growths) in the historic Bordeaux Wine Official Classification of 1855.
The 2005 is only now just entering into an approachable phase for drinking but, with significant decanting, unfurls to reveal wonderful notes of blackberry, crème de cassis, cedar, tobacco and peppery spice. This will easily last another 20+ years and may well be worth holding onto a little longer.
