CHÂTEAU LÉOVILLE LAS CASES 2003 (1)

Saint-Julien. 2ième Cru Classé
scraped label

An incredibly fresh, lively 2003 (the pH is only 3.6 and the alcohol is 13.1%), this wine offers a dense ruby/purple color along with full body and a remarkable nose of black currants, kirsch, lead pencil shavings and vanilla. Opulent, full-bodied and close to full maturity, it is a seamless classic that will age for 15-20 more years. Kudos to the Delon family for such a brilliant achievement in a tricky vintage. Drink: 2014-2034 August 2014 WA 96

CHÂTEAU LÉOVILLE POYFERRÉ 2003 (1)

Saint-Julien. 2ième Cru Classé
scraped capsule

The spectacular 2003 Leoville Poyferre exhibits a dense purple color with a touch of lightening at the edge as well as notes of creosote, barbecue smoke, jammy black currants, licorice and spice box. This intense, voluptuously textured, full-bodied St.-Julien possesses low acidity and ripe tannin. Still fresh and exuberant, it is just entering its plateau of full maturity where it should remain for 10-15+ years.August 2014 Drink: 2014-2029 WS 95 WA 96
