2019 Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2eme Cru Classe, Saint-Julien 6x75cl

Chateau Leoville Las Cases

Case Format: 75cl

Max score: 98

Drink To: 2026-2055

Starting out as the “second wine” of Leoville-Las-Cases, Clos du Marquis soon became a standalone wine in its own right. Its 45-hectare vineyard is surrounded by some of the most prestigious classified growths in Saint-Julien and therefore benefits from a similar terroir of humic podzol over sandy-clay gravel. When tasting, the Le Clos du Marquis shows itself to be typically Saint-Julien. Excellent structure, complexity and harmony exemplify this.

The 2019 Leoville Las-Cases is tasted from two bottles, but it is the second that really delivers the goods. It has a beautifully-defined bouquet with blackberry, black olive, subtle marine scents and touches of crushed stone. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain tannins, cohesive, quite high toned towards the finish with touches of mint and cedar. Very fine. Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting.

The 2019 Leoville Las Cases is a brilliant young wine that will delight Bordeaux purists. Unwinding in the glass with scents of cassis, dark berries, cigar wrapper and pencil shavings, it's full-bodied, layered and tightly wound, with a deep core of fruit, lively acids and an abundance of rich, powdery tannins. Concentrated and serious, much like its immediate neighbor Chateau Latour, it is likely to emerge as one of the vintage's longest liveda and greatesta wines.

Tasted blind. Dark crimson. Restrained nose. Juicy, yet not too sweet. Lots of detail and length. Fruit almost masks the massive, ripe tannins. Really lifted and savoury. Masses going on here. Vibrant and almost painful acidity. Lots of tannin on the end. Luscious fruit and very dramatic. Thick and emphatic. (JR)
