Thomas Barton was an Irish man who arrived in Bordeaux at the beginning of the 18th century. He started his wine business in 1725 which is today the oldest wine merchant in Bordeaux, exporting 16 million bottles across more than 130 countries.

The spirit of Thomas Barton has been perpetuated in this unique and presitious range of carefully selected wines from the heart of the Bordeaux region's greatest appellations. These wines are the epitome of classic Bordeaux: rich, fruity and elegantly oaked, the modern equivalent of the great wines of the 18th century, those that Thomas Barton might have enjoyed and chosen himself.
