Overview:

The Thomas Barton 2022 Réserve St Émilion pays tribute to the legacy of Thomas Barton, who made his mark on Bordeaux’s wine trade in 1725. With his commitment to quality, Barton established a reputation that has been carried forward in this exquisite Saint-Émilion wine. Housed in a classic "flacon bordelais" bottle with traditional packaging, this wine blends the richness of Merlot and the finesse of Cabernet Franc. Aged for six months in American oak barrels, including 50% new barrels, it embodies the elegance and heritage of the region.

Tasting Notes:

The 2022 Réserve St Émilion greets the eye with a brilliant ruby red colour. The nose is expressive, offering vibrant aromas of red wild fruits like raspberries and dried cranberries, accompanied by subtle notes of nutmeg and forest floor. On the palate, this wine is juicy and forward, with a lively acidity providing a backbone and soft, well-balanced tannins that lead to a long, lingering finish. A true reflection of the St Émilion terroir, it delivers a harmonious and elegant experience. This wine pairs beautifully with rich dishes like duck breast "Vigneronne" or a medallion of monkfish in a St Émilion wine sauce. Its structure and balance make it an excellent companion for a variety of gourmet meals.
