Critics’ scores and tasting notes
“The 2006 Léoville Las Cases is muscular and uncompromising, unwinding to reveal aromas of dark berries, cassis, burning embers, espresso roast, exotic spices, loamy soil and toasty oak. Full-bodied, rich and extracted, it's a deep, brooding wine with considerable depth and concentration, framed by an abundance of sweet, powdery tannin. It possesses considerable potential, but it continues to require patience.”
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.
