Rezensionen & Bewertungen
98 Robert Parker
The 2019 Léoville Las Cases is a brilliant young wine that will delight Bordeaux purists. Unwinding in the glass with scents of cassis, dark berries, cigar wrapper and pencil shavings, it’s full-bodied, layered and tightly wound, with a deep core of fruit, lively acids and an abundance of rich, powdery tannins. Concentrated and serious, much like its immediate neighbor Château Latour, it is likely to emerge as one of the vintage’s longest lived—and greatest—wines.

Remarkably sleek and pure, considering the generally burly and obvious tannic profile of the vintage. Delivers a pure and unadulterated beam of cassis and plum reduction flavors inlaid seamlessly with a glistening iron girder that seems to have no end point through the finish, where violet, anise and black tea notes shimmer. Reserved overall, with a beautiful austerity, this is an example of how great terroir always shines through—even in extreme years. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2030 through 2050. — JM

The 2019 Léoville–Las Cases, bottled July 2021, retains the energetic, vivacious bouquet that I noticed last year from the barrel sample, offering intense blackberry, bilberry and still those faint shucked oyster shell scents in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with wonderful detail and precision, a mixture of black and blue fruit and enthralling clarity and length. Perhaps there is a little more creaminess in terms of texture toward the finish, a bit of "baby fat" that will be subsumed with time, so give this 8–10 years in bottle if you want to taste it in full flight. [Returning after 15 or 20 minutes, I discerned more pepperiness on the finish, and perhaps also less creaminess and more structure.] 14.02% alcohol.

Château Léoville Las Cases
Weltweit anerkannt als bestes der Super Seconds im Médoc übertrifft das Château Léoville Las Cases häufig sogar die Ersten Gewächse. Dieses große Weingut erstreckt sich mit seinen 98 Hektar Rebfläche über die kiesigen Lehmböden um den Ort Saint-Julien. Es ist seit dem späten 19. Jahrhundert im Besitz der Familie Delon, neben den beiden kleineren Châteaux Potensac im Médoc und Nénin in Pomerol. Diese kraftvollen Saint-Julien-Weine sind Verschnitte mit Dominanz von Cabernet Sauvignon und 18 Monaten Ausbau in neuer Eiche. Die innovativen Vinifizierungsverfahren, insbesondere die Fermentation bei niedriger Temperatur, verleiht den Weinen ihr typisches Flair reicher und exotischer Aromen. Diese qualitätsbewusste Kellerei produziert ihren Grand Vin von ausschließlich den hervorragendsten Terroirs, wodurch er zu einem unnachahmlichen Bordeaux wird.
