The Léoville Las-Cases is a gorgeous, sophisticated wine. Deep and beautifully layered, the has remarkable depth and simply impeccable balance. Here, too, the integration of fruit, tannin and acidity is simply remarkable, especially for such a young wine. In so many vintages, Las Cases can be a brute, but is incredibly polished. If anything, it is uncharacteristically shy at this stage. Press wine is 6.5%, which is on the lower end for Las Cases. The wine was barreled down in December, fully blended.
