Chateau Leoville Poyferre 2018

#7 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2021

The 2018 vintage of Léoville Poyferré has a deep garnet color with purple highlights. Beautifully shiny and limpid, this wine displays a youthful color.

Juicy, generous aromas of red and black fruits burst from the glass, accompanied by notes of oak and plenty of freshness.

On the palate, the wine takes on a lot of breadth while retaining its juicy character. Suave, aromatic notes of black fruits and oak persist. The tannins are still quite present and will develop a lovely patina with a little aging. The powerful, dense finish lingers on and on.

2018 is an exceptional vintage and affirms its immense aging potential.

Blend: 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot
