Description:
ChateauLeoville Poyferre2011
St. Julien, 2eme Cru Classe
"This property, which has been on a qualitative tear over the last generation, has produced one of the most successful wines of 2011. A blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and the rest Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc, it is broad, rich, medium to full-bodied and dense. It boasts an inky/purple color as well as lots of concentration, silky tannins, and a bigger, richer mouthfeel than any of its St.-Julien peers. The result is one of the stars of the vintage." R. Parker for TWA, 94 pts. 04/14
12 bottles (owc)
Estimate $600-900
