Château Léoville Barton 2017
£120.00
Château Léoville Barton is one of the most iconic Saint-Julien estates and part of the historic Léoville estate division, ranked as a second growth. Known for its Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant style, the wines are structured, elegant and built for ageing.
The 2017 vintage, shaped by a challenging growing season, delivers a fresher and more accessible style than bigger vintages, marked by balance, precision and finesse. Retailer notes describe a blend of around 93% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% Merlot, with redcurrant, cassis and sour cherry on the nose and firm, ripe tannins.
A classic choice for Bordeaux lovers, available to order from Chiswick Wine.

Every detail of Finchley Wine reflects that vision. The space is thoughtfully designed with an organic, natural aesthetic and shelves filled with handpicked bottles from producers who care for their land as much as their craft. We call it wine design, a blend of taste, community, and creativity that turns every visit into an experience.
At Chiswick Wine, you will find not only distinctive wines but also a welcoming space built on connection, sustainability, and local spirit.
