Château Léoville-Las-Cases--Vintage 2003
Saint-Julien, 2ème cru classé
"The solidly made 2003 Léoville Las-Cases (13.2 alcohol) is a blend of 70.2 Cabernet Sauvignon, 17.2 Merlot, and 12.6 Cabernet Franc. In this incredibly hot vintage, the alcohol is slightly lower than achieved in 2002, a cool-climate year. While not a profound example of Las-Cases, the 2003 is muscular, deep, and full-bodied with an impressive ruby/purple color, a tight but juicy bouquet of vanilla, black cherries, crushed rocks, and flowers, a sweet attack, and moderately high tannin. Backward and fresh, displaying impeccable delineation and purity, it can be enjoyed between 2012-2023." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate # 164 (Apr 2006)
