Lisa Perotti Brown bewertet das Fassmuster am 27.04.2018 in der Ausgabe 236 des Wine Advocate wie folgt: The 2017 Leoville Barton is deep garnet-purple in color with a nose of warm cassis. fresh blackberries and blueberries with hints of violets. dark chocolate and licorice. Medium-bodied with a rock-solid frame of grainy tannins and wonderful freshness. it gives a fantastic core of fruit and wonderful length.
James Suckling bewertet das Fassmuster am Donnerstag. den 05. April 2018 wie folgt:This is a really excellent Leoville-Barton with wonderful cabernet sauvignon character of blackberries. blackcurrants and flowers. Full body. firm and lightly chewy tannins and a long and beautiful finish. This has tension and brightness.
Das Team von Vinous bewertet das Fassmuster im Mai 2018 wie folgt:One of the few truly exceptional Left Bank wines of the vintage. the 2017 Léoville-Barton is simply fabulous. The 2017 also has the distinction of having a very high percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon. Inky crème de cassis. white flowers. lavender. crushed rocks. menthol and spice give the 2017 a distinctly layered. resonant feel. The 2017 offers fabulous density and structure. although the tannins need time. The blend is 93% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% Merlot. The September rains were especially challenging for the Merlot and Cabernet Franc. As a result. Cabernet is pushed up in the blend. while there is no Franc at all. Tasted two times. - Antonio Galloni
