menthol and liquorice build with a bit of time in the glass

sealed under screw cap

The palate is fruity and has lovely savoury tones with a firm structure at present especially mid-palate

I was impressed by the quality of both the whites and reds here

Chateau Langoa Barton Bordeaux 2012 Blanc de Noirs menthol and liquorice build withClassic, signature Langoa, evident sandalwood and cedar smoke on the nose, coupled with violet, peony and rose petals flowers, fresh acidities from juicy blackberry and raspberry fruits, still has plenty of grip that suggests you can begin to drink today, but it should improve further over the next 2 to 3 years, and then go for a good few decades. Enjoyable. Tasted also at the chateau in a vertical recently. 60% new oak. Jane Anson
