Château Langoa-Barton 2011 – Saint-Julien, Cru Classé

The nose is elegant, fine, racy and offers richness and a fine concentration. It reveals notes of cassis, blackberry and small notes of strawberry associated with fine hints of violet as well as discreet hints of graphite, iris, mushroom/underwood and discreet saline hint. The mouth is fruity, well-balanced and offers a good definition, an acidulous frame as well as gourmandize. On the mouth this wine expresses notes of ripe cassis, crushed blackberry and crushed raspberry associated with fine touches of violet, mushroom as well as a subtle hint of violet plum and an imperceptible hint of graphite.
