Critics’ scores and tasting notes
“The 2000 Léoville Las Cases takes time to unwind in the decanter and glass, but when it begins to show all its cards, the display is spectacular. Mingling aromas of dark berries and red fruits with aromas of pencil shavings, loamy soil, cedar box, bitter chocolate, dried rose petals and licorice, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with a layered, complete mid-palate that's rare in this vintage, powdery tannins and a long, resonant finish. An uncompromising classic, even as it closes in on its 22nd birthday, the 2000 Las Cases remains an infant in terms of evolution.”
Domaine de Léoville, one of the oldest vineyards in the Médoc. The present-day terroir of the Grand Vin dates back to the 17th century. The gateway, emblem of the Estate, opens onto a clos of around 55 ha enclosed by a stone wall, which marks out its terroir and stretches from the village of Saint-Julien to Château Latour. It is within this clos that the Grand Vin de Léoville du Marquis de Las Cases is produced. Since the end of the 19th century, Léoville las Cases has been run by the same family, currently represented by Mr Jean-Hubert Delon, the sole owner.
