2005 Château Léoville Poyferré

Community Tasting Note

94 Points

Sunday, December 21, 2014 - Wines tasted at Eriks vinbar (Eriks vinbar, Stockholm): Classical, powerful and rather young Bordeaux nose with blackcurrants and notes of even darker berries, some barnyard aromas and tar, a hint of dried herbs, and well integrated oak. The palate is medium bodied+, with blackcurrants, good acidity, some tar and pepper notes, tannins that are well integrated into the fruit, and an aftertaste dominated by dark berries with some tannins. Still on the young side, but somewhat accessible now, 94+ p.

Poyferré is usually called modern in style, but in the 2005 this is combined with a very fine balance on the palate and classical vibes.
