A beautiful wine, once again, from this property that has been on a superb qualitative roll for several decades. Dense ruby/purple with notes of graphite, background oak, youthful crème de cassis and blackberry fruit as well as a floral underpinning, it is medium to full-bodied, textured, rich and impressive. Still in a somewhat adolescent stage, it should hit full maturity in another 2-3 years and last at least two decades. Drink 2017-2037.

| | The second wine of Chateau Leoville Poyferre. Textbook Saint Julien. Aromas of wild strawberries and loganberries are an overture to lithe, seductive, broad and layered flavours that rest on a smooth but firm texture. |
|
| | A wonderful blend of 80% Merlot and 10% each of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.
Aromas of red fruits, vanilla and spice . Full flavour on the palate and soft elegant tanins give a lovely finish

| 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc. The 2005 here was brilliant and the Chateau believe that the 2009 is even better. Plush red cherry, redcurrant, soy and forest floor aromas.On the palate there is ample freshness and focus. Medium bodied with lovely chalky tanins. Great finish and length- a stunner
|
| | Black fruits and toast aromas. Big and tannic, medium purple in colour with an expressive, youthful nose of liquorice, roasted coffee, ripe plums and slight chocolate . A wine with elegant and smooth drive. Well-layered and complex with flavours being very well integrated. |
| | Ripe red fruit aroma on the nose with a good fleshy structure on the palate. Very attractive and currently drinking. |
|
| The second wine of the famous Ch Leoville Lascasse.
On the nose, blackberry, leather with a touch of cloves . The palate is medium-bodied with good fruit extraction, clean with good acidity cutting through bright blackcurrant and cassis fruits with a nice floral, elegant finish with a touch of chestnut. Very fine |
