NM93 The 2007 Léoville Las-Cases is a vintage that I have not encountered for a couple of years. It has a tobacco-driven bouquet with the dried blood elements that I remarked upon in my previous tasting note. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red berry fruit, perhaps with less of the tobacco influence that I noticed before, harmonious with a fine bead of acidity. Now à point, this is a lovely SaintJulien, quite mellow for this estate with a tingle of pepper on the aftertaste. Readers are advised to give this a 3 to 4-hour decant.

JS95 Complex aromas of currants, mushrooms and forest flowers. Some leaves. Medium to full body and firm, silky tannins with berry, light vanilla and cedar. Blackcurrants. Cigar box. Just opening. So delicious and drinkable now. By James Suckling, Aug 2020.
JD94 The 2007 Léoville-Las Cases is beautiful. Offering a youthful, tight style at first, it opens up nicely with time in the glass and gives up classic notes of crème de cassis, cedar pencil, graphite, and tobacco. With a medium to full-bodied, elegant, concentrated style and the sweet tannin of the vintage, it’s approachable today but will keep for another 15+ years. It’s a terrific wine in the vintage.

JA95 A deeper register of fruit than many of the 2007s on display, this is one where you would never pick the vintage blind. Here we get wet stones sliding up against slate and liquorice, dark bristling cassis and bramble fruit. There is just so much hold and confidence, and yet juiciness. By Jane Anson @ Decanter, Feb 2017.
Grapes: 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc & 8% Merlot
