A superb wine, the 2020 Léoville Barton exhibits generous aromas of blackberries and crème de cassis mingled with hints of licorice, pencil shavings and classy new oak. Medium to full-bodied, broad and fleshy, with a concentrated core of fruit, sweet tannins and a nicely defined finish, it bears some similarities with the estate's demonstrative 2000 vintage, even if the two growing seasons were quite different. I suspect it will tighten up with more time in bottle, hence the plus sign next to my score, but right now, the 2020 is unusually accessible out of the gates.

這款巴頓城堡紅葡萄酒酒體飽滿，大量黑莓、藍(lán)莓以及巧克力的風(fēng)味寓于口中，還蘊(yùn)含著礦物質(zhì)和石墨的氣息，單寧耐嚼，完美與酒液融合，是一款如期望般卓絕的葡萄酒。
