thank YOU for being so supportive and collaborative, and open to sharing your wines with the community :-) Looking forward to tasting more of your wines, and visiting someday... Cheers
Just bought a very special Chateau Barton as a special treat. I researched the vintages carefully and decided on 1990. £195. Hopefully, I've made an excellent choice, I'm really looking forward to enjoying it later this year.
IAB 2014 they are certainly great wines, a great compromise between the finesse of Margaux and the power of Pauillac. I haven’t spent that much time in Saint Julien unfortunately. Driving through more than anything. The only Chateau I’ve visited there was Beychevelle. Had a lovely lunch at Le Saint Julien Restaurant Too once. I need to go and tour the Léovilles someday. Have you been? Which Chateau did you go to?
Julien Miquel I went to Château Beychevelle and did a private tour and blind tasting (and celebrated my birthday...so they shared some very nice wines). I also visited Gruaud Larose and Lagrange. The rest of the time I spent in Margaux, Paulliac and St Estephe.
9:29 Wishful thinking, "Léoville-Las Cases". Good explanation of the history of the Bartons and their properties. Interesting to see Langoa on the label of Léoville. In the past, I found Langoa slightly more austere and underwhelming. But recent years are very, very good and it remains a great QPR. Léoville-Barton always is a steady performer. Especially, imho, in the more classic years.
Very good video! In fact, Château Léoville Barton is an excellent and respectable Grand Cru Classé from Saint-Julien. I tasted the 2008 vintage and was impressed.
thanks much man. Absolutely, an excellent wine, and 2008 was a great vintage. With 10 years of age, it would have been fantastic. I personally also love Margaux wines, and Saint-Estephe. I like the finesse of Margaux (and i worked at Chateau Margaux at some point, so how would I not love it!?!), and the power and concentration yet refined strength of St-Estephe. Saint Julien is a great in-between.
Es-ce-que vous avez la genealogíe de la Famille Saint-Julien? Ils étaient mes Ancêtres. La Famille Morales Y Julien. Il venait de Cuba, mon Ancestre, et il est allez vivre à Panama. Quelle part de la famille est cela?
Julien Miquel I was not talking about you. I know your pré nom Julien C’est un prénom. I thought you might Know a bit about the Nom Saint-Julien bécasse my ancestors did Come from the Caves en Bordeaux and ils faisaient du vin. I just want to know thèm. And mon ancestre was disinherited
@@maricarbo Saint Julien was a Saint the village was anmed after, and later the wine. There hasn't been several Saint Julien. Not necessarily all related to one single family. Have a look here perhaps fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Julien

Do you recommend chilling the bottle before drinking?
It depends what sort of room temperature you have. It'd around 64F. Above 68 would be a little too warm I'd say...
@@RUclipsJulien I live in Singapore and it's very humid. I would say room temperature is around 75-80 or even higher depending on time of day.
Yes, so say around 45 minutes in the fridge before serving. Maybe uncork prior to get a little air in the wine 😊🍷
@@RUclipsJulien Thank you so much..
@@RUclipsJulien I'm a beginner and just got a bottle of Chateau Lalande-Borie St Julien 2016 for our family Christmas Lunch..
