Château Léoville-Las-Cases--Vintage 2000
Saint-Julien, 2me cru classé
Tasting Note: This wine has put on weight and, as impressive as it was from cask, it is even more brilliant from bottle. Only 35 of the crop made it into the 2000 Leoville Las Cases, a blend of 76.8 Cabernet Sauvignon, 14.4 Merlot, and 8.8 Cabernet Franc. The wine is truly profound, with an opaque purple colour and a tight but promising nose of vanilla, sweet cherry liqueur, black currants, and licorice in a dense, full-bodied, almost painfully rich, intense style with no hard edges. This seamless classic builds in the mouth, with a finish that lasts over 60 seconds. Still primary, yet extraordinarily pure, this compelling wine, which continues to build flavor intensity and exhibit additional layers of texture, is a tour de force in winemaking and certainly one of the great Leoville Las Cases. In another sense, it symbolizes pays homage to proprietor Michel Delon, who passed away in 2000. Michel has been succeeded by his son, Jean-Hubert, another perfectionist. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2040. Robert Parker. Wine Advocate 146. April 2003.
