2015 Château Léoville Las Cases, St Julien, Bordeaux

Description

The crisp acidity of this wine is what provides it with such great freshness and the tannins are plentiful but exceptionally fine. The persistence of the finish is usually a hallmark of this great estate, and it is certainly present on this 2015. It needs time to mature of course, but this wine seems to be maintaining the tradition of the finest wines from this St Julien Super Second. This is a classic Claret-lover’s dream, with those slightly earthy notes courtesy of the high Cabernet in the blend. This is so reflective of Ch. Léoville-Las Cases, and so very good.

Saint-Julien

Saint-Julien

St Julien is the smallest of the ‘Big Four’ Médoc communes although, without any First Growths, it is recognised to be the most consistent of the main communes with many châteaux turning out impressive wines year after year. The wines can be judged as much by texture as flavour, and there is a sleek, wholesome character to the best. At their very finest they combine Margaux’s elegance and refinement with Pauillac’s power and substance.
