Chateau Leoville Poyferré, Saint Julien 2nd Grand cru classé 0,75ltr
Château Léoville Poyferré is a 2nd Grand Cru Classé from Saint-Julien. The origins of the château go back to 1638. At that time, Léoville was the largest estate of the Médoc, but has known different owners, which eventually resulted in the château being split into several houses. The Cuvelier family, known in Bordeaux, has owned Château Léoville Poyferré since 1979.
95/100 Robert Parker
Notes Robert Parker:
“The 2018 Leoville-Poyferre is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot and 2% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Léoville Poyferré hits the ground running with intense cassis, violets, dark chocolate, menthol and fragrant earth notions complemented by nuances of cigar box and smoked meats. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is charged with energetic, super intense black fruit and floral layers, beautifully supported with super firm, ripe, grainy tannins and seamless freshness. This liquid is simply alive in the mouth, culminating in an epically long finish that will leave your mouth practically tingling. WOW!” – Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
