Wine Advocate note Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 30/06/2009 As one might expect, this is a brilliant wine, but it remains shockingly young, even for the fast evolving 1990s. Its deep ruby/purple color is accompanied by a classic, nearly restrained set of aromatics that includes notions of sweet black cherries, black currants, lead pencil, and wet stones. In the mouth, it is full-bodied, and while technically low in acidity, there is a freshness, delineation, and classicism in this full-throttle,...

Leoville Las Cases is one of the vintage red wines in Medoc and a popular name in the world of Bordeaux wines. This red liquor is a perfect mixture of variety of best quality grapes with the maximum percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon variety. These grapes are harvested to produce a magnificently dark colored wine with amazing sweet ripe tannin and flavors of black cherry. Wine lovers adore this brand for its high concentration, massive fruity density and extreme purity. As the bottle is opened, the...

CJATEAU LEOVILLE LAS CASES 2009 75CL

Wine Advocate note Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 01/01/2003 The 1985 is a gorgeously open-knit Las Cases with a sweet nose of lead pencil, sweet black cherries and currants, and a hint of underbrush and new oak. Medium to full-bodied with expansiveness, supple tannins, and outstanding concentration, this is a beautifully made wine that still tastes like it is an adolescent and may even have an even greater upside as it continues to age in bottle. The low acidity and sweet tannin, however, suggest...

"Very intense nose of blackcurrant, blackberry, plum, violet and raspberry - very lovely. This beautiful fresh ripe fruit continues on the palate along with dark cherry and forest fruits, clove, liquorice, dark chocolate and cedar. The wine has great structure, intensity and balance with good levels of acidity and very fine tannins. The length of finish is massive. 9+".

"Along with the Medoc first growths, Leoville Barton, Chateau Montrose, Sociando Mallet, and a handful of other producers, Leoville Las Cases continues to make a wine meant for very long-term cellaring. When I did my earlier tastings of the 2000, my projected maturity dates were 2012-2040, but it is looking more like 2020-2050. This full-bodied blend of nearly 77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14.4% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc still has a youthful ruby/purple color, notes of graphite, kirsch liqueur...

Wine Advocate note The plushest, most ostentatious and dramatic of all the Leovilles in 2000, this wine is already sumptuous, displaying some nuances in its huge nose of vanilla bean, black chocolate, jammy black cherries, cassis, and graphite in a flamboyant style. Opulent, savory, rich, and full-bodied, it is a head-turning, prodigious wine and a complete contrast to the extracted behemoth of Leoville Barton and the backward, classic Leoville Las Cases. The Poyferre’s low acidity, sweet tannin...
