Winemaker Notes
The 2022 Léoville Las Cases is a blend of 83.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10.5% Cabernet Franc, and 6% Merlot. The wine displays a deep garnet-purple color with classic scents of warm cassis, juicy black plums, and pencil shavings, evolving into notes of iron ore, crushed rocks, and violets. It's described as a "Taj Mahal of Cabernets," showcasing a medium to full-bodied palate with a firm backbone of exquisitely ripe tannins and a long, lively finish.
