Wine from St Julien

Wine Spectator, 97 points: This is so vivid as it brims with pastis-soaked plum, blackberry, black currant and blueberry paste flavors, all carried by a perfectly integrated brambly spine. Tar and ganache notes give the finish an extra kick while...

Wine Spectator, 91 points: This château made a classic grand vin and the second wine is outstanding. Very rich and plummy on the nose. Full-bodied with chewy tannins and plenty of fruit on the finish. Serious concentration here. Second wine of...

jamessuckling.com, 95 points: Concentrated and elegant with a great harmony of dry tannins and ripeness (but no hint of overripeness), this has a long finish with a lot of drive and enormous freshness. You could drink this now with red meat, but it’s...

Wine Enthusiast, 94 points: There is a great link here between the tannins delicious red berry fruits and blackcurrants and the almost architectural structure. The wine certainly has fine fruit a great balance very complete finishing gently ripe and...

Wine Enthusiast, 95 points: This rich, full wine shows the chateau to be at the top of its form. It’s finely balanced, pushing both its fruit and acidity, with the tannins taking the supporting role. With its power leashed, this shows the stylish...

jebdunnuck.com, 100 points: The greatest wine I’ve ever tasted from this address is the 2009 Léoville Poyferré, which is a step up over both the 2000 and the 2010. A blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 29% Merlot, 6% Petit Verdot and the balance...

jebdunnuck.com, 100 points: Reminding me of the 2010 with its incredible stature and class (as opposed to the more opulently styled 2009), the 2016 Château Ducru-Beaucaillou is a legendary wine from the genius of Bruno Borie, who has managed this...

jebdunnuck.com, 97 points: I absolutely loved the 2015 Léoville-Barton and this has everything you could want from a Left Bank Bordeaux. Cassis, smoked earth, graphite, tobacco leaf, and thrilling amounts of minerality all emerge from this inky...

Wine Enthusiast, 93 points: Ripe and spicy with delicious open fruit this wine is rounded yet has a straight line of pure acidity. It has a light touch while showing depth of flavor for the future. - R.V.

jebdunnuck.com, 100 points: (98-100) A candidate for the wine of the vintage is the 2018 Léoville Las Cases. My notes on this incredible wine are laced with expletives that I, unfortunately, can’t repeat here. Safe to say, however, it’s one of the...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 97 points: (95 - 97) The 2018 Gruaud Larose is blended of 67% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot and 9% Cabernet Franc, with a pH of 3.88 and 14.2% alcohol. Deep garnet-purple in color, it leaps from the glass with bold black cherries...

jamessuckling.com, 96 points: This is fantastic, offering lots of fresh tobacco and blackcurrants and undertones of hazelnuts and chocolate. Full-bodied with firm and chewy tannins, yet ever so polished and refined. One of the most structured St...
