Jeb Dunnuck Tasting Note

The 2000 Leoville Las Cases is another brilliant wine and, like most 2000s, appears to just now be at the early stages of its drink window. Smoky black fruits, crushed rocks, lead pencil, and menthol notes all emerge from this brilliant, blockbuster beauty that still tastes like it's just 5-6 years old. Beautifully concentrated, ripe, sexy, and seamless, it has the classic elegance and regal quality of this domaine front and center. It has another 3-4 decades of longevity.

About the Producer

Château Léoville Las Cases, an iconic Second Cru Classé of Saint-Julien, enjoys a remarkable location at the gateway to Pauillac. Its history is intimately linked to that of the former vast Léoville estate, of which it remains the historic heart today. The Delon family, guardians of a centuries-old tradition, has watched over this Médoc jewel for several generations, and Jean-Hubert Delon now embodies the continuity of this pursuit of excellence. He crafts wines of rare depth and elegance, seeking the perfect balance between power and finesse. The grand vin of Léoville Las Cases, a noble blend where Cabernet Sauvignon reigns supreme, is a global benchmark, celebrated for its aromatic complexity and extraordinary ability to age. The estate also produces Clos du Marquis, a singular expression of the Saint-Julien terroir, as well as Le Petit Lion du Marquis de Las Cases, a second wine full of charm and freshness. It is said that the Marquis de Las Cases liked to say his wine was "the most Pauillac of the Saint-Juliens," an eloquent compliment that underscores its unique character and power.
