Heiner Lobenberg om:
Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2eme Cru 2024

97–99
/100

84 procent Cabernet Sauvignon, 11 procent Cabernet Franc og fem procent Merlot. pH-værdien er 3,6, og alkoholindholdet er 13,1 volumenprocent. Der blev høstet 31 hektoliter pr. hektar. 75 procent af vinen blev modnet i nyt træ i 18 måneder. Mørk rubinrød i farven. Levende, syngende, mineralsk næse. Selv her syre uden højdepunkt. Sten, kalksten og fyldig rød frugt. Ribs, efterfulgt af vilde hindbær, surkirsebær og slåen. Alt sammen levende og med en let chili-varme, plus lidt lakrids og en smule nougat. En vanvittig elegant, meget intens næse af rød frugt. Smagen er derefter forbløffende afbalanceret. Masser af søde røde kirsebær, ribs, surkirsebær, men alt sammen meget fint. Tanninerne er polerede, polerede og silkeagtige. God mellemsmag og fin længde med salt og lidt karamel. Chic Léoville las Cases, nok den bedste Saint Julien i årgangen, men ikke dramatisk over andenvinen Clos du Marquis. *** Trods sit umiddelbare naboskab til Pauillac er Léoville Las Cases altid tro mod sit terroir. På trods af sin enorme tæthed mangler den aldrig det legende aspekt af en Saint-Julien. Slottet ligger på en næsten to meter tyk gruslinse. Under denne er der et vandlagrende lag af ler. Vinstokkene er derfor velforsynede med vand, selv i år med tørke.

Suckling om: Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2eme Cru

Complex, refined and truly mineral, this has natural vibrancy and freshness as well as excellent depth. Light midpalate concentration but also no sweetness at all. Medium- to full-bodied with chalky, stony tannins and a long, very tense finish. A vintage of delicacy and finesse. If you seek less alcohol and less power, this will be a great year to buy. 84% cabernet sauvignon, 11% cabernet franc and 5% merlot.

Markus Del Monego om: Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2eme Cru

Dark purple colour with violet hue and almost black core. Noble nose with great precision, ripe and balanced fruit, blackcurrants, blackberries and floral hints, subtle oak and discreet toasting. On the palate well structured with very elegant body, balanced with aromatic depth and length, very persistent with excellent length. Tastingbook.com

Revue du Vin de France om: Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2eme Cru

Le nez profond et frais introduit encore un très grand Las Cases. En bouche, pas de doute, sa précision, son éclat et sa persistance en font un modèle du millésime. Son tour de force consiste à allier une impressionnante puissance et une grande finesse en finale. Il déroule une fantastique allonge.

Jeff Leve om: Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2eme Cru

Juicy black currants, blackberries, Cuban cigar, cedar, and notes of crème de cassis fill the perfume. On the palate, the wine is long, vibrant, clean, and pure. There is a stately elegance to the currant-filled profile, with layers of blackberries and black cherries adding to its character. Firm, reserved, and refined, the fruits are fresh, boasting a classic profile, but classic in the best way. As always, Léoville Las Cases requires bottle aging. However, for Las Cases, this will be easy to taste with just about 5 years of age and should positively evolve for decades. This is in clear contention for wine of the vintage. Produced from a blend of 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Merlot, 13.1% ABV. Harvesting took place September 30 - October 9. Only 55% of the harvest was placed into the Grand Vin. Drink from 2030-2060.

Galloni om: Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2eme Cru

The 2024 Léoville Las-Cases is gorgeous. All the Las-Cases signatures are present, just dialed down a touch. Blue/purplish fruit, lavender, grilled herbs, graphite and menthol are all beautifully delineated. The 2024 is distinguished by its precision and total class. Time in the glass brings out the wine's intensely floral, spice-inflected aromatics. Brisk acids and bracing mineral notes wrap it all together in style. I can't wait to taste this from bottle.

The Wine Independent om: Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2eme Cru

Deep garnet-purple colored. Sashays out of the glass with gregarious notes of red currant jelly and fresh black cherries, plus nuances of iris, camphor, fragrant soil, and graphite with a touch of underbrush. The medium-bodied palate is refreshing and elegantly knit with very fine-grained tannins and bold red berry flavors, finishing long and minerally.

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2eme Cru

The 2024 Château Léoville Las Cases is another incredibly classy wine from this team. It's a blend of 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Merlot, coming in at 13.1% natural alcohol and aging in 75% new barrels. Cassis, spicy oak, graphite, and tobacco all emerge on the nose, and it's medium-bodied on the palate, with a focused, elegant mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and the notable yet integrated acidity that marks the vintage. Complete and layered, this elegant Las Cases brings to mind the great vintages of the 1980s and 1990s. It will benefit from just a few years in bottle, and I wouldn't be surprised to see it evolve for decades.
