Jean-Marc Quarin December - 1990
Jean-Marc Quarin
Bordeaux red color. Evolved. Correct intensity. Bright. Clean nose, of medium intensity. Note of undergrowth, dead leaf, blackcurrant. There is fruit. On swirling, clean and more intense. With a warm side. Note of humus. Retains finesse. Understated attack, developing on a light structure, of round form, quite pleasant. The flavors intensify in the mouth to finish long on simple tannins which are not coarse. Good persistence of fruit and wood well associated, particularly clean. Trace of distinction.

Popped and poured. Upon opening, the wine was completely tertiary showing all forest floor and autumnal notes. With 30 minutes of air, notes of cedar and dark fruits almost magically appear. The wine even seems to gain weight. The wine somehow becomes more complete and satisfying. This is on the decline but still enjoyable with about an hour of air.

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.
