Description
Chateau Leoville Poyferre 2018St. Julien
Bottle (6)
Property from the collection of a wonderful Florida gent. All wines purchased on release and stored in a redundant professional facility that is both temperature and humidity controlled.
"A blend of 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc, aged in 80% new oak barriques, the 2018 Léoville Poyferré comes bounding out of the glass with exuberant scents of Morello cherries, plum preserves and blackberry pie, giving way to nuances of cedar chest, unsmoked cigars, vanilla pod and sassafras, plus a waft of crushed rocks. The palate is full-bodied, rich and decadent, delivering hedonic black fruits and lots of spicy accents with a velvety texture and seamless freshness, finishing long and satisfyingly savory. This is a very impressive showing that is delicious out of the gate but has the backbone to give a good 30 years or more of pleasure." (97 pts. Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate, March 2021)
"Leoville-Poyferre is sensational in 2018. There's not much more to say than that. A wine of explosive power and intensity, the 2018 dazzles from start to finish. To be sure, the 2018 is racy and opulent, but all the elements come together so effortlessly. Bright red-toned fruit, mocha, pine and wine flowers all open with a bit of coaxing. The new oak is a bit prominent at this stage, but that will be less of an issue over time." (97 pts. Antonio Galloni, Vinous, March 2021)
