Château Langoa Barton
In 1722, the Irish entrepreneur Thomas Barton moved to Bordeaux, where he founded a wine trading company shortly afterwards. Around 100 years later, his grandson Hugh Barton acquired the Langoa estate with around 20 hectares of vineyards and turned it into Château Langoa Barton. This was included in the Médoc classification as a 3ème Grand Cru Classé in 1855.
