Tasting notes

Deep purple colour. Aromas of cassis and dark fruit with notes of coffee, violets and tobacco from new oak. The palate has soft tannins, good texture and depth, and finishes with excellent freshness and a long, refined aftertaste. Best served at 16–18 °C, ideally after a short decanting.

About this wine

Château Léoville Las Cases is one of the oldest and largest estates in the Médoc and a leader of Saint-Julien. Its 97 hectares lie on gravelly clay soils, with the main walled vineyard stretching between the village of Saint-Julien and Château Latour.

The wine is dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by Merlot, and matures in largely new oak barrels for around 18 months. The 2013 shows a purple colour, soft tannins, good texture and depth, with notes of coffee, flowers and tobacco and excellent freshness on the finish.
