Description
The 2005 Langoa Barton is tannic, leathery and spicy, with a dense ruby/purple color, excruciatingly high tannin, medium body, and good ripeness, but the tannins are questionable and the overall balance possibly suspect. We’ll see what age does, but after ten years, this remains a hard, angular and austere wine.

Tasting note
2005年的朗歌巴頓堡是聖朱利安產區的瑰寶，展現了巴頓家族釀酒傳統的深厚底蘊。酒體呈深邃的紅寶石色澤，散發著黑果香氣，並巧妙地融合了經典的煙草葉和雪松氣息。口感上，成熟的黑櫻桃和黑加侖子果味與獨特的肉質風味相得益彰，結構精緻。酸度為果味帶來清新感，酒精度恰到好處，使這款酒成為其類中的佼佼者。建議醒酒兩小時，以展現其複雜的風味，非常適合搭配烤羊肉或紅酒燉牛肉等佳餚。
The 2005 Chateau Langoa-Barton, a gem from the Saint-Julien appellation, is a testament to the rich history and expertise of the Barton family's winemaking legacy. With a deep ruby-red hue that captivates the eye, this wine exudes dark fruit aromas elegantly intertwined with classic notes of tobacco leaf and cedar. On the palate, it reveals a harmonious blend of ripe dark cherry and blackcurrant, complemented by distinctive meaty undertones and a well-structured finesse. The acidity brings a lifting freshness to the fruit, while the alcohol is masterfully balanced, making this wine an attractive exemplar of its kind. Decanting for two hours will allow its complex profile to unfold, making it an excellent companion to dishes like roast lamb or beef bourguignon.
