The Story

The flagship wine of Château Léoville Las Cases showcases intense aromas of cassis, blackberry, graphite, cedar, violet, and cigar box. Powerful yet impeccably refined, it combines remarkable concentration, seamless tannins, vibrant freshness, and extraordinary length with exceptional aging potential.

Food Pairing: Pair with beef Wellington, grilled ribeye, roast lamb, venison, duck confit, truffle dishes, aged Comté, or braised short ribs.

 

99 Points -

Let yourself go and sink into this deep dark chasm that will swallow you whole if you let it. Enormous concentration, but every bit as much finesse, the finish extremely long and fine. And this is just beginning to give its best! Drink or hold.

 

98 Points -

A beautifully structured wine, with its tannins layered between the ripest black plums, damsons and black currants. It is opulent while remaining dense, concentrated and very serious. Certainly a wine for long-term aging.
98 Points -
This is gorgeously layered with cassis bush, anise, roasted fig and plum reduction notes all framed by very racy espresso and graphite. Very deep and very long, with terrific intensity on the finish thanks to razor cut from the seemingly endless iron spine. With its purity and precision, this mineral-driven Cabernet should cruise for two decades. Best from 2020 through 2035.
97 Points -

The 2009 Leoville Las Cases is aging very gracefully, exhibiting all the plenitude and generosity of the vintage without any of its potential excesses. Offering up aromas of sweet cassis, loamy soil, cigar wrapper, spices and a deft touch of classy new oak, it's medium to full-bodied, broad and enveloping, with a layered core of fruit framed by fine, powdery tannins, concluding with a long, beautifully defined finish. It's at the beginning of what will be a long drinking window. Best After 2021
