Château Léoville 1995 Las Cases
(about 1 year ago)Marked deep ruby colour, intense and full with a complex nose of blackberries, vanilla and a mineral quality. An initial flavour set of blackberries, really high of fruit and some tough tannins indicate the wine needs even more time, probably another 10 years to reach its optimum expression. The earthy character of the wine is appealing and the finish is satisfying, smooth and long. A wonderfully complex and interesting wine that is well priced due to the hyped '96 vintage.
