This comes from 50- to 90-year-old vines and is a blend of 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc and 10% Merlot with 13.28% alcohol, 3.72 pH and an IPT of 71. The 2017 Léoville Las Cases is deep garnet-purple in color, and wow, the nose bursts with beautiful blackcurrant cordial, blackberry pie and blueberry preserve notes followed by hints of lilacs, dark chocolate, cedar chest, sassafras and licorice with emerging wafts of oolong tea, lavender and iron ore. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is an exercise in elegance and soft-spoken nuances within a mouth-coating palate of almost electric black and blue fruits, framed by very firm, exquisitely ripe, fine-grained tannins and seamless freshness, finishing epically long and wonderfully perfumed. Damn, that’s good<br/>

The purity here is really something. Blackberries and blackcurrants with sandalwood, mint and other classic herbs. Full-bodied and dense with ultra-fine tannins. Silky in all ways. Goes on for a long, long time. A blend of 79% cabernet sauvignon, 11% cabernet franc and 10% merlot. Joyous and serious wine for the vintage. And comparable to 2014 and 2015. Try after 2023.

This has the vintage’s fresh acidity, which does a wonderful job of driving the core of blueberry, black currant and blackberry fruit along. Light anise and graphite accents lend typicity, with a sleek mineral edge on the finish. Rock solid.—J.M.

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.
