An interesting contrast to other 2003s, the Leoville las Cases has an impressive bouquet of blueberries and graphite, however, unlike other St Julien (Leoville Poyferre, for example), it is quite restrained in the mouth and not as sweet, but it is an elegant, compelling wine nonetheless. — 8 years ago

Delightful wine, seeing the other tasting notes I wonder how many people took the time decant the wine in a wide based carafe or a developing decanter an hour or more before drinking? full bodied and hearty for st julien, nice casis and lovely tannin expression and went beautifully with rack of lamb, cheese mash and ratatouille. Still young, but with balance and racy if not long finish. Excellent value and overjoyed that I had the foresight to buy 6 for autumnal drinking. 7 % of beautiful petit verdot from leoville poyferre main vinyard that showed fantastic maturity but simply wasn't needed for the grand vin, together with 30% of the grand vin fruitwent into this and it shiws with spice from the excellent petit verdot and extra depth and complexity from that 30% grand vin. Great wine and the site is now it's own separate vineyard. If you didnt decant this wine at its current stage of evolution then do not rate it. Great value and crying out for food. Hungry again for lamb now. — 10 years ago

2003. Olive tapenade, blueberry, cedar, cherry liqueur, slight dusty tannins on finish. Not quite integrated, needs more time to find right balance. But Wine of the night for everyone else (when paired with 2000 Leoville Poyferre). — 11 years ago

$90. Better than Boyd Cantenac and Chateau d'armailhac. More dry than the Leoville Poyferre. Has a very strong potent finish. — 9 years ago

Very nice St. Estèphe, but the Ch. Moulin Riche '14, at half of this price, is a much better bottle on all fronts. — 9 years ago
