CRITIC REVIEWS
Neal Martin
The 2025 Leoville-Poyferre was picked from September 8 to 23 at just 20.3 hl/ha, undergoing a six-day cold pre-fermentation maceration and matured in 80% new oak. This is quintessential Poyferre on the nose, quite sensual and pure in style, with layers of ripe black fruit, black plum, a hint of camphor and violet. Wonderful delineation. The palate is framed by fine tannins, beautifully balanced, again quite minerally in style, with a precise and persistent graphite-tinged finish. If you love Poyferre, then you are going to adore this.

Mainly Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot plus smaller amounts of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Cask sample.Deep crimson with purplish rim. Relatively subdued first impression, deep and dark. Both black and blue fruit, so intense it is subdued, and a touch of something floral, a sort of violet sweetness. Extremely compact, refined tannins. Too smooth to be described as chewy but there is so much density here. Not as accessible as some in this vintage but the fruit is rich enough to wait for the tannins. Acidity less noticeable than on the Lagrange just tasted but it is all in harmony for a very long life. (JH)
