Château Léoville Barton

The vineyard spans 47 hectares along the Gironde river, featuring gravel soils with clay subsoil and plantings of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc.

The estate, originally part of the larger Léoville property, was acquired by Hugh Barton in 1826 and received its Second Growth classification in the 1855 Bordeaux ranking.

The wine production combines traditional Bordeaux methods with temperature-controlled fermentation in wood vats, followed by careful aging in selected oak barrels.

Wine enthusiasts can visit the estate throughout the year, participating in guided tours that include detailed explanations of the winemaking process and tasting sessions.

Despite its renowned name and wine production, Château Léoville Barton operates without an actual château building, sharing facilities with Château Langoa-Barton.
