Château Léoville-Las Cases

Grand Vin de Leoville du Marquis de las Cases Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2001

9.1

This wine was built for aging but unfortunately was closed this evening. Very tight and closed. Nice body, tannic backbone intake, but not letting go of the fruit that is present. Would wait a few years before heckling in. — 11 years ago

Decanted because last time we opened '07 it was a snoozer. This time the acidity was paired with red fruit, an enticing sourness and a strong finish. Tannins provided a hint of backbone, nothing to stop this from being a wine you couldn't drink on its own. — 12 years ago

Steven Mirassou's Bordeaux blend has some of the best qualities of 2011: lifted, aromatic, varietal character and a backbone of acidity and minerality that will age for 20+. — 11 years ago
