The estate also produces an excellent second wine, La Réserve de Léoville Barton, a red wine made from younger vines. The vineyard spans 51 hectares, planted with 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot, and 3% Cabernet Franc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Chateau Leoville Barton","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53986895003832,"sku":"SKU-260826082248","price":565.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.vauclusecellars.com.au\/products\/chateau-leoville-barton-2010","provider":"Vaucluse Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
