2020 Chateau Langoa Barton 3eme Cru Classe, Saint-Julien 6x75cl

There’s only one Bordeaux, isn’t there? Still the benchmark, and names like Latour, Margaux, Haut-Brion, and Pétrus resonate with drinkers everywhere. But it’s important to note that it’s not just about the ‘bling’ – indeed, the top estate make up a tiny proportion of the region’s production. Away from the fairy tale châteaux, thousands of small growers also work their magic, making excellent (and improving) whites, as well as the reds that the British came to call ‘claret’.
