Château Léoville Las Cases 2ème Cru Classé 2021 is a grand and exceptionally classic red wine from Saint-Julien, Bordeaux, featuring dark fruit, graphite, and a deep, aristocratic structure. The vintage appears precise, focused, and remarkably harmonious, with lovely freshness, straight elegance, and an intensity that lends the wine both great seriousness and significant aging potential.

The aroma offers blackcurrant, blackberry, and dark cherries, complemented by violet, cedar, tobacco, pencil shavings, graphite, espresso, and a subtle stony hint. The taste is medium to full-bodied with dense, juicy fruit, fine yet firm tannins, and a lively freshness, where dark berries, spicy nuances, and a cool mineral depth converge in a long, nuanced, and classic finish.

The wine pairs excellently with beef, lamb, duck, game, as well as braised and grilled dishes – an obvious choice for grand dinners and for those seeking a Saint-Julien with both structure, finesse, and exceptional development potential.

96 /100

The 2021 Léoville Las Cases has turned out beautifully in bottle and clearly numbers among the very finest wines of the vintage. Unfurling in the glass with aromas of dark berries and cassis mingled with notions of cigar wrapper, violets and pencil shavings, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated with a deep and multidimensional core of fruit framed by beautifully refined tannins and girdled by lively acids, concluding with a long, penetrating finish. Serious and structured without being austere, it's a blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc and a further 5% Merlot. - William Kelley, Wine Advocate

Robert Parker wine advocate

98 /100

The wine's powerful density comes from the black-currant flavors and tannic core. Wood, leather and concentration all show in the aromas. It is a serious, powerful wine with 80% Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink from 2028.

Wine Enthusiast

96 /100

Vivid dark ruby color, opaque core, purple tinge to the narrow rim. Nougat, black berries, fresh dark cherries, a touch of savoriness; an inviting bouquet. Taut, tightly woven, very lively, fine tannins, finesse and persistence, subtle sweetness on the finish, red cherry aftertaste. Potential to age for many years, the proportion of Cabernet Franc gives the wine the special touch.

About the grape

Rød Bordeaux Blend

Rød Bordeaux Blend er en kombination af de druesorter, der traditionelt bruges til Bordeaux' berømte rødvine. Det er ikke en officiel betegnelse, men en praktisk måde at tale om en vinsstil, der nu dyrkes over hele verden – fra Californien til Australien, Sydafrika til Chile.

Essensen er fleksibilitet: typisk en blend af Cabernet Sauvignon og Merlot, ofte suppleret med Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot og Malbec. Hver drue tilfører noget unikt – struktur, frugt, krydderier eller blødhed.

Rød Bordeaux Blend er for dig, der søger kraftfuld struktur og dybe smagsnuancer. Det er vine med personlighed – nogle kan nydes straks, andre udvikler sig smukt gennem årene. Her får du en vinsstil med historisk fundament, der stadig inspirerer vinmagere verden over.

Serving

Rød Bordeaux Blend serveres bedst ved 16-18°C, hvor vinens frugt, struktur og kompleksitet står skarpest. Serveres den for varm, kan alkoholen virke mere dominerende, mens for lav temperatur dæmper aromaerne. Bordeaux anbefaler selv 16-18°C til strukturerede og lagringsværdige rødvine.
