About this wine
Crafted by the Barton family, Château Mauvesin Barton 2016 embodies the refinement and heritage of Moulis-en-Médoc. This vintage delivers ripe cassis, plum, and blackberry fruit layered with cedar, spice, and soft earthy notes. Silky tannins and balanced freshness bring elegance and depth, with the structure to reward ageing in the cellar.
An ideal partner for roast lamb, beef, or game, making it a fine choice for both family meals and special occasions. It reflects the Barton family's dedication to excellence and the distinct character of the Médoc.
