Description
Chateau Leoville Las Cases 2008St. Julien
Magnum (2)
Property of a Los Angeles gentleman. All wines purchased on release or carefully curated auctions, and stored in a double-insulated, temperature and humidity controlled cellar.
"A classic style of Las Cases that is somewhat masculine for the vintage, tannic and backward, and less formidably concentrated than the 2009 or 2010, the 2008 needs 7-8 years of cellaring. Dense purple, the aromatics are closed, but with coaxing and aggressive swirling, notes of crushed rock, black currants and some forest floor notes emerge. Impressively built, medium to full-bodied, layered and stunningly concentrated, this is a sleeper vintage for Leoville Las Cases that should improve considerably, given how closed it was the day I tasted it." (93+ pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #194, May 2011)
