(2007) Pure violets, minerals and blackberries on the nose. Full-bodied, chewy and powerful. Still holding back a lot. This wine needs to break its chains. Give it time.

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
If it were not for the prodigious 1996, everyone would be concentrating on getting their hands on a few bottles of the fabulous 1995 Leoville-Las-Cases, which is one of the vintage's great success stories. The wine boasts an opaque rubypurple color, and exceptionally pure, beautifully knit aromas of black fruits, minerals, vanillin, and spice. On the attack, it is staggeringly rich, yet displays more noticeable tannin than its younger sibling. Exceptionally ripe cassis fruit, the judicious use of toasty new oak, and a thrilling mineral character intertwined with the high quality of fruit routinely obtained by Las Cases, make this a compelling effort. There is probably nearly as much tannin as in the 1996, but it is not as perfectly sweet as in the 1996. The finish is incredibly long in this classic. Only 35% of the harvest was of sufficient quality for the 1995 Leoville-Las-Cases.

A clear winner in this mixed vintage, the wine is concentrated, deep and fresh, with a ripe, blackberry essence. Full bodied and long, the wine is young, yet, with the ripeness in the tannins and the fruit, it's already enjoyable in your glass. In time, another 10 years or so, this will be even better!

Falstaff
Strong ruby garnet, violet reflections, subtle rim brightening. Plummy fruit, delicate spice hints, a touch of nougat, cherries in the background. Powerful, juicy, somewhat soft contours, already developed, slightly dry on the finish, should be consumed soon. One can only hope that this bottle was not representative, as this wine gave rise to the greatest hopes in its youth.

Deep purple. Iodine and race on the nose. Thick and sweet and lacks a very slight lift. Bit heavy. This one needs lots of time. Others were more impressed.

Jane Anson - Inside Bordeaux
A year that can get overlooked on the Left Bank compared to the (majestic at this property) 1986, but I would strongly suggest not forgetting about the 1995 Las Cases. No Petit Verdot, unusual at the time and making it more reflective of modern blends, stong salinity, with waves of oyster shell and white truffles that head towards dried roses, finely boned tannins, campfire, soot, undergrowth, blackberry, and a shot of mandarin juice that injects a shot of freshness and youth. At this stage it isn’t loudly proclaiming its brilliance, just gently reminding you that this is a wine built to last, with a shot of electricity running through it.

Comparison between the decanted and non-decanted wine. Red color, intense and still young. The nose of the non-decanted wine is superior. It is fresher and smells of cedar. On the palate, the decanted wine is silkier, but becomes tannic from the mid-palate through to the finish. Flavorful, powerful, it finishes long, with a Cabernet Sauvignon style. Nevertheless, the tannin grain is a bit too square during the persistence. Note that it is even more so when not decanted. This vintage contains 15.5% press wine. It is precisely this that makes this finish rigid.

Château Leoville Las Cases
Château Leoville Las Cases

Château Léoville Las Cases is a wine estate located in Saint-Julien-Beychevelle in the Gironde department. In the Saint-Julien Médoc AOC, it is classified as a second growth in the 1855 classification.

The estate comprises 97 hectares of vineyards. The vineyard adjoins that of Château Latour, separated by the small Juillac stream. At the heart of the estate lies the Grand Clos, a 50-hectare vineyard entirely enclosed by walls, with its entrance guarded by the famous lion adorning the labels of the estate's bottles. The vineyard of Château Léoville Las Cases features a grape variety composition of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Franc, and 3% Petit Verdot. The wine ages for 18 to 20 months in oak barrels, on average 50 to 100% new.

The second wine is Clos du Marquis. It has been produced since 1902. Anecdote: In a scene from the film 'L'Aile ou la Cuisse' (The Wing or the Thigh), the food critic Charles Duchemin (played by Louis de Funès) manages to identify a Léoville Las Cases 1953 'visually' even though he has lost his sense of taste.
