Description

This is your chance to taste the world's best wine. Each year, Wine Spectator editors survey the wines reviewed over the previous 12 months and select the Top 100, based on quality, value, availability and excitement. The annual list honors successful wineries, regions and vintages around the world. You are bidding on a magnum (1.5L bottle) of the wine that topped the list in 2019 - the 2016 Château Léoville Barton St. Julien. "This is so vivid as it brims with pastis-soaked plum, blackberry, black currant and blueberry paste flavors, all carried by a perfectly integrated brambly spine. Tar and ganache notes give the finish an extra kick while everything stays within the mouthwatering roasted apple wood frame. Both regal and rambunctious, this is St.-Julien to a T. Best from 2025 through 2040"
