Chateau Leoville Poyferre Saint Julien 2005
The Wine Advocate "Although I still prefer the 2003, the 2005 Leoville Poyferre is a
gorgeously opulent, approachable wine that is far less massive and
austere than its two siblings. The most seductive, approachable, and
charming of the three Leovilles, it exhibits a dense purple color as
well as a sweet bouquet of mocha, black chocolate, creme de cassis,
licorice, and toasty oak. Full-bodied with gorgeous upfront fruit in
addition to impressive levels of melted, well-integrated tannin, it
should be at its finest between 2015-2035. Score: 93." —Robert Parker, April 2008.
The Wine Enthusiast 92-94 Barrel sample. "A beautiful, fruity wine with great black flavors, rich acidity, the tannins playing the essential bass counterpoint. The dryness from the structure only comes through right at the end. Score: 93. " Roger Voss, June 20, 2006.
The Wine Spectator "Loads of blackberry, licorice and toasted oak on the nose. Full-bodied, with lots of focused and clean ripe fruit character. Balanced and refined. Another 2003? Maybe even better? Score range: 95-100." James Suckling, June 30, 2006.
