Château Léoville Las Cases 2ème Cru Classé 2020 is a grand and exclusive red wine from Saint-Julien, Bordeaux, with impressive depth, classic structure, and aristocratic elegance. This vintage is intense, precise, and highly age-worthy.

The aroma offers blackcurrant, blackberry, and dark cherries, complemented by cedar, tobacco, graphite, herbs, liquorice, and a discreet hint of coffee. The taste is full-bodied and focused with silky tannins, fresh acidity, and a beautiful balance between dark fruit, minerality, and spicy complexity in the very long finish.

This wine pairs excellently with beef, lamb, duck, game, as well as braised, grilled, and oven-roasted dishes – an obvious choice for exclusive dinners and special occasions.

97 /100

The 2020 Léoville Las Cases is a classic in the making, unwinding in the glass with aromas of cherries, cassis, loamy soil, violets and dark chocolate framed by a discreet touch of new oak. Full-bodied, broad and layered, it's rich and concentrated, with a deep core of fruit framed by sweet, powdery tannins and lively acids. Concluding with a long, resonant finish, it's built for the cellar.- William Kelley, Wine Advocate

97 /100

Richly textured from the first moment, pencil lead, cassis, black cherry, cigar box, liqourice and espresso, just waves of utterly gorgeous flavours. I highly recommend that if you can find a way to taste a young Las Cases, it is worth your time, because the bare bones of what it will become are there, and remain visible for a few years before the entire thing clamps shut for a decade or more, prising open only one chink at a time. There are edges of violet and smoked caramel here, revealing a generous Las Cases compared to many vintages, but it will close down like the rest do, surely as night follows day. 50% new oak. The alcohol level is 1% less than 2018 and 0.5% less than in 2019, 3.65ph, 34hl/ha yield.

98 /100

Dark ruby garnet, purple reflections, firm core, delicate rim brightening. Fine noble wood nuances, dark berry fruit, ripe cherries, delicate hints of plums and candied orange zest, multi-faceted bouquet. Juicy, elegant, finesse-rich structure, ripe cherries, some liquorice, perfectly ripe tannins, mineral and long lasting, certain ageing potential, a wonderfully balanced wine that will be very seductive even young. (2028-2065).

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.
