Leoville Barton Damaged Label- 1985 (750ml) Asti Extremely full-bodied

Extremely full-bodied

Gruenchers is not in the model of a typical Chambolle as it's rarely delicate and lacy yet there is a generosity and depth to fine examples that make them most attractive

or that the harvest occurred perhaps a few days earlier than it should have to achieve full phenolic ripeness

and while it is an outstanding wine

with finesse and longevity on its great aftertaste

Leoville Barton Damaged Label- 1985 (750ml) Asti Extremely full-bodiedThe 1985 is a gorgeous example that may well represent a more modern day clone of the splendid 1953. Dark ruby garnet with an open knit, complex, ripe nose of sweet red as well as black currants, vanilla, fruitcake, tobacco, cedar, and earth, the wine is medium bodied with exceptional sweetness, soft tannin, and a supple, very nicely layered finish. A classic midweight Bordeaux, it will drink now and over the next decade. Robert Parker 92 points
