Dark ruby core. Little signs of aging. Cassis/cedery nose is still tight but very classy. Smooth velvety structure, med/full bodied. Very concentrated with silky smooth tannins. Still youthful - a brilliant wine for the vintage. Will last another 10-15 years. Excellent.

3 hours bottle breathed, and this was still so fresh with an incredibly dark core.. I called out LB 1996! This 1983 Leoville Las Cases was singing as were all the wines that evening. Like a well oiled orchestra!! Supremely well balanced; Cassis and more blackfruit, acidity M+ and tannins rounded after 40 years! Nose : Ripe blackfruit and cassis, with unmistakable cigar box. As it takes on more air, and as my nose gets used to the complexities.. Graphite and pencil lead with old leather too. Palate : Blackfruits with plums developing after 1 hour too. Mid to full bodied. Very classical style. Tannins - Rounded. Acidity - Medium. Finish - Medium to long length.

Firm, austere, classic style of St. Julien here. The nose is packed with cedar, tobacco, cigar box, ash, wet, forest floor and bright red berries. Medium/full bodied, with a rusticity to the tannins that was common in that era. Still, this is fun to taste, when you're in the mood for the equivalent of an old, black and white, movie style of Bordeaux.

Like so many 1983s, this wine entered full maturity 6-7 years ago and now seems to be suggesting that it needs to be drunk up quickly, as the tannins and acidity continue to take hold, and as the fruit fades. The wine has a dark plum/garnet colour with some amber at the edge. The wine is medium-bodied with a bit of sharpness in the finish. However, the aromas and attack of the wine are still intact, but consumption definitely seems warranted.

With time in a wine decanter it really opened out and by the time it was enjoyed with mallard at the JancisRobinson.com Christmas dinner it came into its minerally own with many a layer of subtlety – most notably on the nose.

Château Château Leoville Las Cases
Château Leoville Las Cases
Château Leoville Las Cases

Château Léoville Las Cases is one of the most iconic estates in the Saint-Julien appellation, renowned for the precision, depth and longevity of its wines. Classified as a Deuxième Grand Cru Classé in 1855, it has distinguished itself for over a century through its exacting standards and consistent quality, placing it at the pinnacle of the Médoc hierarchy.

Originating from the former Léoville estate, the vineyard of Château Léoville Las Cases is now protected by a historic walled enclosure, a rare distinction in Bordeaux, ensuring a strong parcel identity. Located immediately on the banks of the Gironde, facing the great terroirs of Pauillac, the estate benefits from a privileged environment, conducive to slow and uniform ripening of the grapes.

The grape variety, dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon and complemented by Merlot and Cabernet Franc, gives the wines a deep structure and remarkable ageing potential. Iconic vintages include Château Léoville Las Cases 1945, Château Léoville Las Cases 1982, Château Léoville Las Cases 1990, Château Léoville Las Cases 1986, Château Léoville Las Cases 2000, Château Léoville Las Cases 2005, Château Léoville Las Cases 2014, regularly praised for their balance and ageing potential. The estate also produces a renowned second wine, Clos du Marquis, offering a more accessible interpretation of the Las Cases style.
