Chateau Leoville Las Cases is a highly structured and age-worthy Saint-Julien red, known for its concentration, precision, and classic Left Bank character. It displays deep flavors of blackcurrant, graphite, cedar, and tobacco, supported by firm tannins and vibrant acidity. Powerful yet refined, it develops exceptional complexity with extended aging.
Food Pairing: Pairs well with steak, lamb, roasted meats, game, and aged cheeses.
95 Points - James Suckling
Super racy and balanced with masses of licorice and currants and intense aromas. Full and very silky with an intensity of fruit. Reminds of the 1996. Best after 2015.
95 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2008 Leoville Las Cases is vibrant and youthfully primary, offering aromas of dark berries and cherries with hints of pencil shavings and integrated oak. Medium to full-bodied, taut and layered, with tangy acids, ripe tannins and a long, penetrating finish. A serious wine that will reward patience.
95 Points - Wine Enthusiast
With superb tannins, the wine has a solid core of structure layered with direct blackberry fruits, elegant texture and intense acidity. Impressive and built for aging.
94 Points - Wine Spectator
Loaded for the vintage with layers of crushed blackberry, fig paste and black currant, offset by tobacco, charcoal and anise notes. The finish is dense with iron and roasted earth, built for long aging.
