Château Leoville-Las Cases - Saint-Julien 'Grand Vin de Leoville' 2014

Léoville-Las Cases in particular has garnered such a compelling stance as a Bordeaux Super Second that Wine Spectator has deemed it to be “the Sixth First Growth.” Even the single 50-hectare plot from which this fruit is sourced abuts the famed vineyards of Pauillac’s southernmost 1er cru, Château Latour! Undoubtedly if the rankings were to see any new additions to its top tier, Léoville-Las Cases would be next in line for an upgrade. These wines offer the value of premier cru without the expense.

"I love the nose of blackberries, blueberries, flowers and citrus. Hints of stones and wet earth. Full body and ultra-fine tannins that are so long and seamless. Incredible length. A wine that you want to drink now." - 98 Points, James Suckling

"This is a great wine. It has all the elements in place to produce a wine that will last for years: powerful fruit, rich tannins and a structure that is built to last. This is elegant, impressive and concentrated. Almost entirely Cabernet Sauvignon, the grape gives the wine its fruit and its tannins." - 97 Points, Wine Enthusiast
