Visited Langoa and Poyferré in the past. They are my true St Juliens. Barton is classic, complex. Poyferré shows more glamour. Love them all.
Thank you! Very glad to hear it! Completely agree with you!
As always, superbly presented information and insights - much valued and appreciated! Your dissections and discussions of top Bordeaux producers and their wines, wineries, and vineyards are always much anticipated and greatly appreciated, here on YT and other platforms as well. And this is certainly not an exception! Although I’ve tried only the La Réserve de Leoville Barton and I’ve still got a bottle of Clos du Marquis, I’ve always been interested in Chateau Leoville hence I truly enjoyed this video and definitely have learned a lot from you (as usual😊). Thank you for sharing! Santé, John!
Thanks very much, Margaux! So pleased you enjoyed it! Definitely three of my favorite producers! Santè!
I’ve just rewatched this as Barton and Poyferre have both just released 2023 en primeur at reasonable prices and I’m tempted to order a case. Which of the two would you go for if you could only buy one?
Close call but for 23 I’d probably go with Barton. First vintage in new winery I believe.
Thank you for such an informative video 🍷
My pleasure Natasha! Very glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
Good informative video. I appreciate your single producer videos
Thanks very much! Appreciate the support and kind feedback.
Have such a love for the 3, poyferre had difficult years but they are great recent years, my grandfather was a barton and poyferre man, he would have loved the development of the wines, but imo las cases is the king, tasted a magnum 89 wich was superbe. greetings from the netherlands
Thanks very much! Completely agree! All such consistently outstanding producers! Very glad you enjoy them as well. Cheers!
cheers back john!@@AttorneySomm
👍
Thank you
Shared this video in my WhatsApp wine groups😊
Thanks very much! Greatly appreciate it!
Thank you for the video, very informative. We are in the process of bottling a 14 year old Linkwood whisky that was finished on a Las Cases barrique.
Thanks for the kind feedback and for letting me know about the whisky! Very nice!
Wow , this video suits me perfectly since I bought 3 days ago 6 bottles of LP 2018 in Specs in McAllen Tx .
Very glad to hear it! Thank you! 👍 🍷
I’ve bought several bottles of Le Petit Lion and thought it was an excellent wine without being so expensive. I found them for $50 per bottle. I really liked the 2017 that I opened last February. The other wines that you mentioned I have not tried yet, but I will in the future because I’ve already been looking at them.
Thanks for weighing in! Agreed Le Petit Lion is an excellent value! Glad you will be trying some others as well. 👍🍷
Great video as always, thanks for sharing! Poyferre has always struck me as being the best value out of the 3, so I’ve tended to purchase it ahead of the others. ‘05 Poyferre is next on my list. I reckon it’s got to be pretty much ready by now right?
Thanks very much! Yes, I enjoyed the 05 Poyferre a couple years ago, so that one should be ready to go any time!
I’ve never had a delicious las cases, it also seems like a pale imitation of Lafite. They need a touch more of Poyferre’s style.
It can definitely be a bit more austere. Needs so much age.
Bom dia de Brasil, é maravilhoso ver seus vídeos
Muito obrigado! Saude!
Niceee. I think my fav of the three might be Leoville Poyferre... esp because of QPR
Thank you! They are definitely doing very well!
Would love a single video on Montrose if you get time
Thanks very much for the suggestion!
Thanks for the insight. I’m sitting on some 2014 and 2018 Ch. Leoville Barton. Any personal exposure to these vintages? Expected drinking dates?
Believe I have some 2018. That one I would try to give at least another 8-10 years if you can. The 2014 is much more approachable though. I think you could try that one in another year or two after a 2 hour plus decant.
@@AttorneySomm Very helpful. Thanks
Have you tried a Leoville Barton 2016 yet?
Wine -searcher days its drinking window is 2022-2066.
Would it be too austere or tannic yet? That drinking window is crazy or maybe that year got so tannic i dont know how they come up with such a broad window
Yes it is excellent! It will be long lived but should reach peak maturity 17-20 years after vintage. You can still enjoy it younger with a long decant and a meal. I’d try to wait until at least 2026.
@@AttorneySomm thanks for helping me out 👍
Ill definitely wait then 😎
