Description
Benchmark St Julien from a super-ripe vintage is very special indeed. The wealth of fruit character already here promises an exuberant future for Château Léoville-Las Cases. This vintage has already whipped up frenzy in the press - scoring highly in every review. Robert Parker calls the wine "a brilliant achievement" and Decanter Magazine awards it a perfect five stars.
"Warm and rich aromas of plums, blackberries and currants, turning to flowers and hints of mineral. Layers of cashmere-like tannins, turning to leather. Warm and inviting, yet rich and powerful; fantastic purity, yet voluptuous." James Suckling, Wine Spectator
