Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2016 Saint Julien

Antonio Galloni Januar 2019:

The 2016 Léoville Las Cases is a majestic. seamless. opulent wine. Yes. I am talking about Las Cases. traditionally one of the Left Bank's most austere. forbiddingly tannic wines. Sumptuous and full-bodied. the 2016 takes over all the senses. with seemingly endless layers of inky. purplish fruit. Mint. lavender and white flowers are some of the many notes that emerge from the exotic. arrestingly beautiful bouquet as the 2016 makes its case for consideration as one of the wines of the vintage. The 2016 got an extra three months in barrel and was therefore bottled on the later side. but that does not appear to have done anything to close the wine down. The 2016 was magnificent on both occasions I tasted it. Put simply. the 2016 Las Cases is a total stunner. Don't miss it!

Lisa Perrotti Brown im November 2018:

Very deep purple-black colored. the 2016 Léoville Las Cases (composed of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon. 14% Merlot and 11% Cabernet Franc) is quite closed to begin. yet with patient coaxing it unfurls beautifully to reveal suggestions of ripe blackcurrants. black raspberries. warm redcurrants and wild blueberries. followed by touches of unsmoked cigars. tilled red soil. cast iron pan. fallen leaves and lavender plus wonderfully fragrant wafts of lilacs and baking spices. Medium to full-bodied. the palate is packed with tightly knit. very subtle layers of minerals. floral notions and black and red berries. all framed by exquisitely ripe. silt-like tannins and fantastic freshness. finishing with epic length and depth. Simply captivating even in its youth. give it at least a decade in the cellar and then enjoy it over the next 50+ years.

Vinous / Neal Martin Januar 2019:

The 2016 Léoville Las-Cases underwent three more months in barrel than usual. and was bottled in September 2018. It has an extremely intense bouquet that manages to retain otherworldly delineation. It is not as expressive as its peers at this early stage (but then again. it rarely is). Yet there is palpable coiled-up energy on the nose. and you can feel the mineralité. The palate is medium-bodied with super-fine tannin and layers of pure black and blue fruit laced with allspice and a pinch of white pepper. It fans out wonderfully on the finish. which exerts fine grip but never overwhelms. This is undoubtedly one of the best wines ever made by the estate. Close to perfection.

James Suckling im Februar 2019:

Very complex and alluringly spicy aromas that bubble in and out of the nose. together with fresh tobacco. raspberries and iodine. moving into blackcurrants. blackberries and a gently gravely. stony edge. The palate has incredible polish that is a foil for the intense power and concentration of this wine. The texture is flawless. building smoothly with fine-grained and focused tannins that sustain a long. fresh finish. The new 1986. which was a legend. This is probably better. A blend of 75 per cent cabernet sauvignon. 14 per cent merlot and 11 per cent cabernet franc. Try from 2024.

Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

The 2018 Leoville Las Cases is a rich. sumptuous. exotic wine in 2018. Plush fruit and suave. silky tannins give the 2018 a level of textural richness that is unusual for a young Leoville Las Cases. Crème de cassis. lavender. mint and sweet spice all build in this extraordinarily beautiful wine. I can't recall tasting a young Las Cases with this much immediacy and sheer allure. The 2018 Las Cases has a very bright future. It is also one of the unquestioned stars of the vintage. In 2018. the blend is 80% Cabernet Sauvignon. 11% Cabernet Franc and 9% Merlot.

Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

“We produced great Cabernet Franc this year.” Directeur General Pierre Graffeuille told me during my visit to Leoville Las Cases. Even though only 3% of the press wine was added back. he was also absolutely glowing about the quality of this too. And he should be—the finished blend for the 2018 Leoville Las Cases is yet another triumph for this great estate. Composed of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon. 11% Cabernet Franc and 9% Merlot. harvested September 15 to October 4 with yields of 35.5 hectoliters per hectare. it has 14.49% alcohol and will be aged in barriques. 90% new. Very deep purple-black in color. it is a little closed to begin. slowly emerging from the glass to reveal subtle woodsmoke. violets. tilled soil and underbrush scents over a core of warm cassis. wild blueberries and redcurrant jelly plus hints of rare beef and iron ore. Full-bodied. rich. super concentrated and bursting with latent energy. this is an atomic bomb waiting to go off in your mouth. It has a rock-solid foundation of firm. very ripe. very finely grained tannins and bold freshness supporting the muscular fruit through the epically long. amazingly nuanced finish. Simply breathtaking.

James Mothels bewertet den Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2018 Saint Julien wie folgt:

This is backward and dense. with thickly layered plum. blackberry. fig and blueberry reduction flavors wrapped liberally in warm ganache and melted licorice notes. A long echo of smoldering charcoal emerges at the very end. There's a lot to resolve here as the rich and austere sides are still melding. but the extra amplitude doesn't distort anything; it just all goes to 11.verkostet 03-19 von James Mothels Winespectator

Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2019 Saint Julien

William Kelley im April 2022:

The 2019 Léoville Las Cases is a brilliant young wine that will delight Bordeaux purists. Unwinding in the glass with scents of cassis, dark berries, cigar wrapper and pencil shavings, it’s full-bodied, layered and tightly wound, with a deep core of fruit, lively acids and an abundance of rich, powdery tannins. Concentrated and serious, much like its immediate neighbor Château Latour, it is likely to emerge as one of the vintage’s longest lived—and greatest—wines.

James Suckling über den Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2019 Saint Julien:

Currants and blackberries with crushed stones, bark and some conifer and pine cone. Perfumed. Discreet. Medium-to full-bodied with an integrated tannin structure that’s full of fine tannins that are weightless and seamless, building on the palate and coming out at the end. Needs five or six years to open. Texture of heavy silk. 79% cabernet sauvignon, 11% merlot and 10% cabernet franc. Try after 2027.

Antonio Galloni (Vinous) bewertet den Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2019 Saint Julien:

Just as it was from barrel, the 2019 Léoville Las-Cases is a wine of pure and total sophistication. There is not the size of some recent vintages, but instead that heft is replaced by cool refinement. The expression of fruit leans into the redder end of the spectrum as opposed to the typically darker Las-Cases profile. Hints of cedar, tobacco, mint and blood orange linger. I can't wait to see how it ages.

Und Neal Martin (Vinous) zum Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2019 Saint Julien:

he 2019 Léoville–Las Cases, bottled July 2021, retains the energetic, vivacious bouquet that I noticed last year from the barrel sample, offering intense blackberry, bilberry and still those faint shucked oyster shell scents in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with wonderful detail and precision, a mixture of black and blue fruit and enthralling clarity and length. Perhaps there is a little more creaminess in terms of texture toward the finish, a bit of "baby fat" that will be subsumed with time, so give this 8–10 years in bottle if you want to taste it in full flight. [Returning after 15 or 20 minutes, I discerned more pepperiness on the finish, and perhaps also less creaminess and more structure.] 14.02% alcohol.

Für den Wine Spectator verköstigte James Molesworth denChateau Leoville Las Cases 2019 Saint Julien:

Remarkably sleek and pure, considering the generally burly and obvious tannic profile of the vintage. Delivers a pure and unadulterated beam of cassis and plum reduction flavors inlaid seamlessly with a glistening iron girder that seems to have no end point through the finish, where violet, anise and black tea notes shimmer. Reserved overall, with a beautiful austerity, this is an example of how great terroir always shines through—even in extreme years. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2030 through 2050.

William Kelley im April 2022:

One of the wines of the vintage, the 2021 Léoville Las Cases is reminiscent of a hypothetical blend of the 1999 and 1996—only better. Offering up incipiently complex aromas of cassis, plums and dark berries mingled with loamy soil, cigar wrapper and exotic spices, it's full-bodied, layered and multidimensional, with superb amplitude and concentration, velvety tannins, lively acids and a long, penetrating finish. Uniting classicism and charm, it exemplifies how a great terroir, exigent agronomy and meticulous winemaking can deliver greatness even in a less propitious vintage. It's a blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc and a mere 5% Merlot this year, checking in at 13.2% alcohol.

The 2018 Clos du Marquis is a powerful. heady Saint-Julien. Smoke. cedar. tobacco. menthol. licorice. iron. scorched earth and gravel all run through this potent. virile Saint-Julien. In 2018. Clos du Marquis is especially tannic. There is so much to like about Clos de Marquis in 2018. but it will need time in bottle. Best of all. it should be a solid value.

Die Degustationsnotiz des Wine Advocate zum Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2020 Saint Julien :

The 2020 Léoville Las Cases is a blend of 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc and 8% Merlot, aging in 80% new French oak barriques, weighing in with an alcohol of 13.68%, a pH of 3.8 and an IPT (tannins index) of 79. The Cabernet Sauvignon was harvested from the 21st to the 27th of September, the Merlot from the 12th to the 15th of September and the Cabernet Franc on the 18th and 19th of September. With an opaque purple-black color, it slowly unfurls to reveal beguiling notes of fresh blackcurrants, Morello cherries, candied violets and dark chocolate, giving way to an undercurrent of crushed rocks, unsmoked cigars, clove oil and fragrant earth. The medium-bodied palate is a powerhouse of energy, delivering tightly wound red and black fruits, mineral and floral layers, supported by fantastic tension and incredibly ripe, silt-like tannins. The finish has jaw-dropping fragrance and depth.

98-99 Suckling-Punkte für denChateau Leoville Las Cases 2020

James Suckling schreibt zum Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2020 Saint Julien Folgendes:

This is incredibly classic in style with so much currant, lead pencil, crushed stone and sweet tobacco. It’s full-bodied with minerally, stoney and powerful tannins. It goes on and one. Real Las Cases here. Solid as a rock. Progresses to violet, graphite and licorice at the end.

96-98 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2020

Das meint die Vinous-Mannschaft um Antonio Galloni zum Chateau Leoville Las Cases:

The 2020 Léoville–Las Cases was picked September 12–29 and matured in 80% new oak with 13.68° alcohol. The Cabernet Sauvignon is in the driving seat on the nose, offering almost saturnine black fruit, pencil shavings and cedar, perhaps one of the most Pauillac-like bouquets that I have noticed on this wine out of barrel, which is no surprise considering its vines adjoin that appellation. The palate is medium-bodied, strict and linear at first, that Pauillac tincture the continuing theme thanks to conspicuous graphite/pencil lead notes interwoven into the black fruit. There is plenty of freshness here and impressive weight, yet no sense of heaviness toward the finish.

A tighter, more linear red with blackcurrant, olive and floral character. It’s medium-to full-bodied with a firm, racy finish. Tight. Sweet tobacco. 61% cabernet sauvignon, 6% cabernet franc and 33% merlot.

The 2020 Clos du Marquis is composed of 61% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot and 6% Cabernet Franc, weighing in with an alcohol of 13.57%, a pH of 3.76 and an IPT (tannins index) of 84. The Cabernet Sauvignon was harvested from the 26th to 29th of September, the Merlot from the 11th to the 16th of September and the Cabernet Franc from the 18th to the 29th of September. Deep purple-black in color, it bursts from the glass with flamboyant notes of crushed blackberries, ripe, juicy plums and blackcurrant pastilles, with suggestions of licorice, red roses and espresso. The medium-bodied palate is completely coated with perfumed black fruits, framed by firm, grainy tannins and bold freshness, finishing long and fragrant. Simply gorgeous.

The 2020 Clos du Marquis was picked September 11–29 and matured in 40% new oak with 13.57° alcohol. This Saint-Julien displays copious blackberry and raspberry scents on the nose, intermingling with freshly rolled tobacco and subtle estuarine aromas. There is something almost... gentle about the aromatics. The palate is medium-bodied with satisfying sappiness on the entry that gets the saliva flowing. Quite classic in style, in keeping with the leitmotif of the vintage, this fans out toward the finish while retaining ample structure and a sense of linearity. This excellent Clos du Marquis brims over with breeding and should drink well for 20–30 years.
