History of the Estate Château Léoville Barton

the story of Château Léoville Barton

A family of merchants

Conquering Bordeaux

Thomas Barton left his native Ireland and arrived in Bordeaux in 1725. He developed a keen interest in wine and founded his own trading company. Following his death, his son William inherited the family estates in Bordeaux and Ireland. He then passed them on to his son, Hugh. Hugh managed to significantly increase the turnover until the French Revolution in 1793. Hugh and his wife were imprisoned and their property confiscated. Eventually released, they left Bordeaux for England and Ireland. Despite everything, Hugh Barton maintained his relationships with the people of Bordeaux and continued to grow his business from afar. He acquired his Château and a plot of land in theLéoville estatein 1826. He then renamed itLéoville BartonThree generations then succeeded one another at the head of the two Bordeaux vineyards.

Ronald Barton arrived in Bordeaux in 1924. A passionate wine enthusiast, he inherited all the vineyards of Saint-Julien. He oversaw the smooth running of the estate until his death in 1986. Having no children, he bequeathed it to his nephew, Anthony Barton, who settled in Bordeaux in 1951.
