"This is not the typical, tannic macho style expected from proprietor Anthony Barton. The 2002 Langoa Barton reveals a surprising suppleness with soft, ripe, black currant and new saddle leather aromas, as well as a nicely textured, medium-bodied, spicy personality. It requires 2-3 years of cellaring and should drink well for 15+ years." 87-90/100 pts. (Robert Parker - Wine Advocate - Oct-2003)
