Chateau Langoa Barton Vintage 1987

Château Langoa Barton is located in the Saint Julien appelation of the Medoc. In the official 1855 Bordeaux classification it was ranked as a third growth. Akin to many wines produced in the area, Langoa Barton is Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant. It does however have more Merlot than its adjacent sibling estate, Leoville Barton. 1987 was a reasonable vintage, but in a lighter style.

Typical blend, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc. 75cl bottle. Abv 12%

Bottle condition, capsule good, label has a piece missing, but all the important information is visible. Wine level very top shoulder

Red fruit, earth, cedar and some vegetal notes on the nose. The lean palate is dominated by the acidity, with some drying fruit left. Civilized tannins and a medium finish, the fruit manifesting itself a bit in the end. Past its peak, austere, but still drinkable. Actually surprisingly so.
