Avis d'expert

95 / 100

Wine Enthusiast

(01-2007) This “super second” lives up to its billing. It is rich and concentrated with dark tannins that lie over the ripe, jammy fruit and black, rich chocolate flavors. Acidity and wood are there, but only just hints after the richness of the fruit. A real, magnificent aging wine.

93 / 100

Adrian van Velsen - vvWine

(08-2021) Initially reserved, cool, profound, mocha yoghurt, stone, black cherry, gingerbread. The palate is firm, well structured, shows energy, balance, has spice and race. The finish has a bit of a lot of heat, but also good length. Now until 2040.

93 / 100

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate

(06-2007) Performing better from bottle than it did from cask, this blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Merlot, and 11% Cabernet Franc has put on weight over the last year. It exhibits the classic style of both Las Cases and St.-Julien in its deep black currant notes interwoven with sweet cherries, wet stones, and toasty vanillin. Made in a structured, medium to full-bodied style with superb concentration, beautiful purity, and admirable symmetry, this beauty is one of the strongest efforts of the vintage.

95 / 100

Wine Spectator

(03-2007) Intense aromas of currant, blackberry and light vanilla. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a long, caressing finish. Layered, with everything in the right proportion for the vintage. Excellent.

92 / 100

Jeff Leve - The Wine Cellar Insider

(09-2021) A bit stoic, the wine is an old-school, classic, firm Claret with a distinctive green, peppery edge to the bright, crunchy, red currants and cranberry fruits on the nose and palate. Definitely not generous, this is better suited for consumers that are not fans of riper vintages.

16.5/20

Jancis Robinson

(09-2017) Tight, compact, furry and drying. Not much user-friendliness, but it does have a classic claret austerity to it. The flavour intensity doesn't live up to the structural power, for me

Château informations

Château Leoville Las Cases

The Château Léoville Las Cases is a french estate located in Saint Julien Beychevelle in Gironde. It is a second classified growth in Médoc classification of 1855.

Jean-Hubert Delon is not lacking in passion nor discipline. The vintages who marched during the past quarter century testify for him. In the Saint-Julien appellation, whether the wines are from in important vintage or a less significant one, they are without a doubt amongst the best. A property absolutely exemplary in the Bordeaux region. The largest of the three Léoville is certainly the greatest in quality and, in the opinion of many, it should be among the first growths. Michel Delon, the "Lord" as he was known, is largely responsible for this recognition.

Since 1976, when he succeeded his father, he worked to reconstruct the drainage of land, to modernize and expand the winery, monitor the performance of its vines. He had this deep attachment to land and work values. His son Jean-Hubert took over in 2000, following his disparition. Las Cases is a typical Saint-Julien of rare nobility of expression and has a breathtaking structure.
