Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, January 1997

Michel Delon, a great man, is the consummate proprietor, meticulously administering this vast estate spread out along the St.-Julien/Pauillac border, separated from Latour's finest vineyard by a mere ten feet. The 1993-95 vintages from Delon are brilliant wines. Leoville-Las-Cases remains one of the irrefutable reference points for high class Bordeaux. This saturated purple-colored wine possesses remarkable sweetness, powerful, chocolatey, cassis-scented aromas, and dense, medium to full-bodied flavors with a superb inner-core of fruit. Purity, balance, and super-concentration and intensity are hallmarks of this remarkable wine. Readers who find it difficult to believe that the 1993 vintage could turn out wines such as this only need to pull the cork on a bottle of the 1993 Leoville-Las-Cases. Anticipated maturity: now-2012. This lion never falls asleep on the job!

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, January 1995

This tasting consisted of each of the varietal components of Las Cases, followed by the final blend for Leoville-Las Cases. Of the 1993's component parts, the Petit Verdot exhibits the densest color and the sweetest nose (cassis and violets). It is a powerful, full-bodied, muscular wine with terrific richness, as well as considerable grip and structure. Although reserved and backward, the muted Cabernet Sauvignon reveals medium body, fine length, and gobs of tannin and structure. The medium ruby-colored Cabernet Franc reveals light body, admirable complexity, and a crisp, vibrant, cedar/spice/pepper component. Overall, it is a tart, elegant wine. The roundest, most supple of the four component wines, the Merlot offers up smoky, coffee, herb-like scents, and a medium ruby color. Interestingly, the final blend for the 1993 Leoville-Las Cases is far superior to any of its components. The wine exhibits more of the Petit Verdot and Cabernet Sauvignon character in its power, tannic structure, and grip. As I have already reported, the 1993 Leoville-Las Cases is one of the top wines of the vintage, combining richness and power with finesse. It will require 8-10 years to reach full maturity and should last for 20+.
