Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2eme Cru 2019
/100
Vinen har 14 procent alkohol i volumen. 79 procent Cabernet Sauvignon, elleve procent Merlot, ti procent Cabernet Franc. Vinen er lagret 90 procent på nye barriques, og druesammensætningen er klassisk Léoville Las Cases. Jeg mener, at dette slot udgør hjertet af appellationen med den største typicitet for Saint-Julien af alle. Høj intensitet i sorte og røde kirsebær, i surkirsebær. Lidt mango ved siden af, nøddeagtige smagsnuancer, praliné og fløde. Utrolig elegant i næsen. Ingen skarp syre, men total polering. Så smukt legende. Masser af sorte kirsebær, der altid kommer tilbage. Lidt burgundisk. Ingen aggression som i nogle år, bare elegance og finesse. En åbenbaring af elegance i munden. Også her - som i næsen - er der fokus på kirsebærfrugt. Sorte kirsebær og surkirsebær. Igen den vilde slåen, lidt ribs og hindbær. Men kun lidt cassis og brombær. Syren er meget fin og mild, tanninerne er polerede. En prangende Léoville Las Cases. Næsten overdimensioneret i sin elegance og finesse. Ikke desto mindre vil den have brug for over ti år. En vin, som jeg endda vil rangere over den grandiose burgundiske Léoville Poyferré. Selv om den måske ikke helt har den ekstra klasse som Pichon Comtesse og Montrose efter min mening, så er Léoville Las Cases en af de helt store årgange. Og den er en undtagelse, fordi den har denne utrolige, udødelige elegance, der er så uendelig fin. 99-100/100

Suckling om: Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2eme Cru
Currants and blackberries with crushed stones, bark and some conifer and pine cone. Perfumed. Discreet. Medium-to full-bodied with an integrated tannin structure that’s full of fine tannins that are weightless and seamless, building on the palate and coming out at the end. Needs five or six years to open. Texture of heavy silk. 79% cabernet sauvignon, 11% merlot and 10% cabernet franc. Try after 2027. 98/100

Parker om: Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2eme Cru
The 2019 Léoville Las Cases is a brilliant young wine that will delight Bordeaux purists. Unwinding in the glass with scents of cassis, dark berries, cigar wrapper and pencil shavings, it’s full-bodied, layered and tightly wound, with a deep core of fruit, lively acids and an abundance of rich, powdery tannins. Concentrated and serious, much like its immediate neighbor Château Latour, it is likely to emerge as one of the vintage’s longest lived—and greatest—wines. 98/100

Wine Spectator om: Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2eme Cru
Remarkably sleek and pure, considering the generally burly and obvious tannic profile of the vintage. Delivers a pure and unadulterated beam of cassis and plum reduction flavors inlaid seamlessly with a glistening iron girder that seems to have no endpoint through the finish, where violet, anise and black tea notes shimmer. Reserved overall, with a beautiful austerity, this is an example of how great terroir always shines through—even in extreme years. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2030 through 2050. From France. 98/100

Jane Anson om: Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2eme Cru
This is just a great Las Cases where the structure expands upwards and outwards, making your tastebuds sit up and pay attention. The scraping minerality almost feels like you are on limestone instead of gravel soils, until the tannins kick in and you hit a wall of slate, spice, liquorice, rosebud, violet. Dark autumnal fruits of blackcurrant and bilberry are set against smoke and flint, giving no ground, demanding you slow down and take your time. It opens up, but you need to work for it. Exudes authority, a wine that delivers the essence of the property. Harvest September 18 to October 8. 3.67pH, 90% new oak. 98/100

Decanter om: Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2eme Cru
Wet stone, smoke and floral aspects to the aromatic profile - seriously inviting. Density and power here, but cooling and all in balance, full of blackcurrant and black cherries with obvious minerality. It gives such plushness in terms of roundness and grip of tannins, but also layers of perfumed fruit, ripe fruit and cooling slate and liquorice elements. A distinguished wine with a seamless tannic structure and excellent length. Lots of life here and also a real, almost sweet acidity that gives life and lift. Lots going on now but designed for long and steady ageing. Drinking window: 2029-2050. 98/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2eme Cru
The 2019 Château Léoville Las Cases is one seriously majestic beauty that shows the elegant, pure, balanced style of this vintage to a T. The 2019 is a blend of 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc that was raised in 90% new French oak. Notes of crème de cassis, smoked black cherries, graphite, tobacco, and damp earth all emerge from the glass, and it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, a fresh, chiseled texture, layers of ripe tannins, and a solid spine of acidity. The 2019 will be one for the ages and will need at least a decade of bottle age, but will drink well for 50-60 years or more. 97-99+/100

Wine Cellar Insider om: Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2eme Cru
Dark, almost opaque garnet in color, the wine loads you up with smoke, spearmint, cigar wrapper, cedar, flowers, deep red pit fruits and blackberries. Perfectly combining intense power, concentration, layers of ripe black fruits and a refined character that create a seamless tasting experience. Give this at least 12-15 years before popping a cork. The wine is a blend of 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, reaching 14.02% alcohol with a 3.67 pH. The harvest took place from September 18 - October 9. 97-99/100
Leoville Las Cases
Delons har ejet denne 2ème Crus siden anden halvdel af det 19. århundrede, og deres vin har været en af de absolut bedste i Bordeaux siden i hvert fald anden halvdel af sidste århundrede.
