What a vintage for Léoville Las Cases! An immediate neighbor of the First Growth Château Latour, Château Léoville Las Cases is universally recognized as one of the greatest wines of Bordeaux—and the world. Consistently performing at the level of the Médoc’s First Growths, it stands as a benchmark for Saint-Julien.
Awarded the highest distinction—four stars in the French wine guide RVF, Léoville Las Cases embodies a timeless grace and elegance. Its superiority lies in a unique combination of soils, exposure, and microclimates, all centered around its legendary Grand Enclos terroir. This exceptional vineyard is meticulously managed by Jean-Hubert Delon, the estate’s visionary owner, whose precision and expertise continue to elevate Las Cases to new heights.
The Grand Vin is produced exclusively from this prime terroir, which shares similar characteristics with Pauillac and directly borders Château Latour. With an unwavering track record of excellence since the 1970s, Léoville Las Cases has consistently impressed—and its latest vintages are reaching even greater heights. |

At the pinnacle of Bordeaux’s hierarchy, the 2019 Red Château Léoville Las Cases stands as a triumph in this extraordinary vintage. This is a flamboyant and truly noble Las Cases, with 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, meticulously crafted for long-term aging. Even in its youth, it displays irresistible balance, perfume, and vibrancy. Its signature tannins, remarkable tension, and restrained power deliver an unparalleled classicism, marked by incredible freshness and a seemingly endless finish.
Parker himself calls it “one of the greatest wines of the vintage.” |
