1985 Chateau Leoville Las Cases St. Julien (torn label)

1985 Chateau Leoville Las Cases St. Julien (torn label) image

(93 Points) This is one of my favorite vintages of Las Cases for present day consumption. The wine reveals a youthful deep ruby/purple color, followed by a classic Las Cases bouquet of pain grille, lead pencil, minerals, and ripe black currants. Medium to full-bodied, with outstanding concentration, and soft tannin, this is a classic, fleshy 1985 that reveals none of the potential dilution noticeable in many wines from this vintage. At one time I thought this might turn out to be a modern day clone of the 1953, but it possesses a lot more flesh and intensity. Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition # B1, January 1998
