This has layer after layer, always different when I come back. Impressive palate, ripe yet fresh, structured yet polished. A dream Bordeaux. My favorite and also WOTN #1 of the tasting.

9/16/2016 - Collector1855 wrote: 100 points66x Parker 100-Pointers from Bordeaux 1947-2010 tasted blind (Switzerland): Tasted blind. Dark purple. Right of the bat this wine impresses with a fantastic nose of dark fruit, toast, chocolate, spices. Full bodied, tannic, young. Great mid-mouth feel and long finish. This is really awesome, lush with aromatic depth. I was surprised when Robert Parker gave this 100 pts but now I can see why. A fantastic showing today. Keen to see if this wine can repeat this performance in ten years time. Group score: 18.61, group rank: 13/64 |

12/19/2015 - Indran Rajendra Likes this wine: 100 pointsPurple edge with black core. An extravagant nose of blackcurrant jam,black cherries,cigar box,roasted notes and a hint of licorice. Well balanced. Ripe fruit. Loads of unobtrusive tannin and acid. Beautiful. Accessed via Coravin one year after initial sampling. |

8/6/2019 - Life At Your Leisure 🍷 wrote: 100 pointsOpaque purple color turning dark ruby at the rim. The whiffs from the glass appear blunt, but slowly evolves to brooding dark fruit, incense, menthol and iodine. The palate reveals a full, dense body loaded with blackberry, creme de cassis, graphite and espresso followed by a texture laden by tannins that have substantially mellowed by its tenth year since harvest. There’s still a bit of tightness that makes it perfectly sumptuous at this stage, then releases a long, silky finish with hints of pencil lead. This by far has been the best I’ve tasted from the Château. Drink now with a 15-minute decant until 2034. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

6/25/2010 - Terkel wrote: 99 pointsBordeaux 1990 - 20 years later (Martins office): Dark red color still with a reddish hue. Intense aromas of pure, elegant blackcurrant fruit and ripe cherries tightly packed together in multiple layers. Similar feel of purity and elegance on the palate where the juicy, primary fruit continues to dominate – even after 20 years! The fruit broadens out on the mid palate and finish with layers of licorice, cigar box, truffle oil and a touch of graphite. The balance is impeccable, but the most amazing thing is the lift you feel in this wine, while it is full-throttle primary fruit there is a surreal lightness that makes it seem to evaporate in the mouth while the finish lingers on forever. Super intense and extremely delicious. Extraordinary. |

12/15/2016 - Jamie Manley wrote: 99 pointsVery shy upon opening, but after 4 hours this was absolutely singing. Massive complexity on the nose - cigar ash, forest floor, earth, cassis, cherry, tobacco, and pencil. Really, an intoxicating nose. The palate seals the deal with the same complexity and wonderful presentation of fruit. Sorted tannin and the finish is sheer velvet with a good 60 second finish. When 90 Poyferre is on it absolutely rocks my world and I am going to score it appropriately. 99 Pts |

3/18/2022 - chardonem Likes this wine: 99 pointsUtterly transcendent at 101 years young. Dried cranberries, lovely cedar, cherry mash bordering on the slightest, welcome sour. Tertiary earth notes and glances of umami. Superbly elegant mouthfeel, with nary hints of tannin (still!), the finish persists for 45+ seconds. A once in a lifetime selection found at Bern's Steakhouse in Tampa, FL. An emotional wine indeed. |

1995 Château Léoville PoyferréSt. Julien Red Bordeaux Blend more |
12/5/2015 - Bordeaux_Jon Likes this wine: 99 pointsI have to respectively disagree with prior tasting notes. This wine was phenomenal! After the bottle was opened, I smelled the cork and I just knew it was going to be great. The first whiff of the wine from the glass took my breath away. So much black and red fruit, violets and floral notes, with a ton of complexity. It was absolutely incredible. With that nose, I didn't decant, and the wine rewarded we with evolution for hours. It just had everything in the nose. Cigar, oak, flowers, black cherry, dark blackberry fruit, a tiny bit of brett, forest floor, some green tobacco, a little pencil lead, and some St. Julien stink. Honestly, the nose on this wine read like a 100 point Robert Parker note. This wine changed my view on 1995 which I thought was over-rated. I recently had the 1995 Margaux, Latour, Haut Brion, Ducru Beaucaillou, Leoville Barton, Cos d'Estournel, and a few others in the past few months. This wine was way out of their league, with only the Ducru coming remotely close. Perhaps the other wines need time and will one day come around to something like this wine. Let's hope. |

5/3/2018 - UFGators Likes this wine: 99 pointsSimply amazing. Loads of freshness and tons of complexity. Wine seems to have lots of life left. Every sip gets better. Please give an hour to decant if you can. I believe this wine and vintage highly under appreciated. Glad I have five left! This wine outperforms the higher rated Leoville Las Cases of the same vintage IMHO. |

3/14/2010 - dsimmons wrote: 99 pointsWhat a beautiful wine! My first of these and I must say that I was wowed. Definitely decant this beauty because it takes a couple of hours to really begin strutting its stuff. when I first poured this wine I was a little concerned because of the slight brownish tint to the wine. I can't really see it in the glass now. Can a wine change color after a decant??? Anyway, the nose is sweet and full of fruit and spice, floral, licorice, bright fruit, black cherry, nutty, vanilla, and sweet earth. One of the most pleasant, intoxicating and complex bouquets of any wine I have ever had. On the palate the wine is simply delightful with depths of complexity and perfect balance. A fruit and spice medley, it just goes down so smoothly. Light spice, blackberry, graphite and other delightful flavors that I can't find words to describe. This is what it is all about!!! |

5/18/2018 - MicklethePickle Likes this wine: 99 pointsOpen last night. Very strong medium ruby color. Satiny. Nose on this has lovely lead pencil and anise. Hints of blueberry as well. Very harmonious. Really lovely to smell. Feminine. Just gorgeous in the mouth, with layers and layers of fruit coming in waves. Lovely blackberries in the extended finish. This is one of the most wonderful older bottles bordeaux I have had in quite some time, and it is in a perfect place right now. Big and rich but silky smooth with tannins completely resolved. Simply stunning. 5-14-20-10: 99/100. 3 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |
