Château Léoville Las Cases 2010 Red (Saint-Julien)
- Cellar Selection
A hugely powerful wine, full of dark, brooding tannins. It’s a wine for seriously long-term aging, a sculptural vision of classic Bordeaux structure with with classy, ripe blackberry fruits. It has fresh acidity and an immense full-bodied character, cut through with mineral acidity. A great wine, with great potential.

A beautifully structured wine, with its tannins layered between the ripest black plums, damsons and black currants. It is opulent while remaining dense, concentrated and very serious. Certainly a wine for long-term aging.

Château Léoville Las Cases 2001 Red (Saint-Julien)
- Cellar Selection
- Online Exclusive
- $190
A classic in development, a wine that will last for decades. It is certainly powerful, but already the shape is finalized, with its plums and berries settling down with perfumes, acidity, just enough tannins and a warm, welcoming richness. A great argument for the superiority of 2001 over 2000.

Château Léoville Las Cases 2009 Barrel sample Red (Saint-Julien)

96-98 Barrel sample. A powerful wine, packed with tannins from structured Cabernet fruits. It exudes muscularity, intensity and concentration. The wood element is present. Maybe the final freshness is missing.

Château Léoville Las Cases 2010 Barrel sample Red (Saint-Julien)
- Online Exclusive
96-98 A hugely dense wine, with a great smoky character, power as well as the greatest finesse. It has rich berry fruits, weaving through the dusty tannic structure, very powerful, concentrated. The end is more severe, along with the year's hallmark juiciness.

Château Léoville Las Cases 2005 Barrel sample Red (Saint-Julien)
- Online Exclusive
95-97 Barrel sample. A big wine with dense tannins, but so elegant. Dark, intense, with layers of acidity underneath that only show through at the end. Unusually, Cabernet Sauvignon dominates this wine, a sign of the ripeness of the Cabernet fruit.

Château Léoville Las Cases 2011 Barrel sample Red (Saint-Julien)
- Online Exclusive
95-97. Barrel sample. This wine is immensely dark, powered by black plum and a ripe, complex structure; its elements are already molding into place. Expect great things of this wine.

Château Léoville Las Cases 2012 Barrel sample Red (Saint-Julien)
- Online Exclusive
95–97. Barrel sample. This is a very solid wine with tannins that are very firm and dense. There is power without excessive alcohol, lending a classic feel, and a pure line from fruit, acidity and tannin. The result is as much about fruit as structure.
— R.V.
