Punteggi dei critici
20 Rene Gabriel
Der Star eines Weinlunches in der Linden-Apotheke in Schöftland. Serviert wurde dieser Wein an 85 (!) Personen. Delikate, kompaktes Süsse, vielschichtig und fein parfümiert. Finesse und Power, so wie ein ganz, ganz grosser Bordeaux sein muss. Das ist Perfektion ohne jeglichen Makel. Trinkreife: 2015-2040

Absolutely fantastic. This is one of the most exciting young reds I have tasted in a long, long time. It shows intense aromas of berries, currants and minerals, with hints of mint. Full-bodied and packed with fruit and tannins, its long finish is refined and silky. A benchmark for the vintage. Las Cases has always wanted to make first-growth quality in a top-notch vintage, and it certainly did in 2000. Best after 2012. 15,000 cases made. JS

A classic Las Cases with masses of mineral, floral and blueberry character. Full and chewy, with so much power. It’s just opening now.

Tasted blind as a vintage comparison at the Valandraud vertical, the 2000 Leoville-Las-Cases is a quite fabulous, magisterial Saint Julien that is only just beginning to flex its muscles. It has a very intense and beautifully defined bouquet with mineral rich blackberry and bilberry scents, outstanding focus and harmony, and very well-integrated oak. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, impressive backbone and focus in situ. There is a touch of mint infusing the fruit here, superb tension with a touch of mulberry and Hoi Sin lingering on the finish that still feels backward and sinewy. What was remarkable was to observe the melioration in the glass, achieving wondrous energy and delineation with time, still improving after a couple of hours. Buy it, cellar it, drink it. Tasted December 2016.<br/>

Château Léoville Las Cases
Universalmente riconosciuto come il più bel Super Second del Médoc, Château Léoville Las Cases spesso supera i Premier Cru. Questa proprietà considerevole si estende su terreni ghiaioso-argillosi con 98 ettari di viti, vicino al paese di Saint-Julien. Lo Château è rimasto di proprietà della famiglia Delon fino alla fine del XIX secolo. Léoville Las Cases è la più grande tra le proprietà di Jean-Hubert Delon; la famiglia possiede altri due Château, Potensac a Médoc e Nénin a Pomerol. Questi potenti vini di Saint-Julien sono assemblaggi a predominanza Cabernet Sauvignon, invecchiati in botti di rovere nuove per 18 mesi. I metodi di vinificazione innovativi, in particolare l'uso della fermentazione a bassa temperatura, conferiscono ai vini lo stile Léoville Las Cases, aggiungendo aromi ricchi ed esotici. Questa cantina attenta alla qualità produce il Grand Vin solo dai più grandi terroir, rendendo il vino un Bordeaux inimitabile.
