2012 Château Léoville Las Cases

Community Tasting Note

93 Points

Thursday, July 2, 2015 - Tobacco, cedar wood, blackberries and fresh herbs create the nose. On the palate, the wine delivers a classic blast of fresh, concentrated, cassis, salty, mineral driven tannins and a chewy, long, cassis filled finish. This will be better with a decade of age.
