Chateau Leoville Las Cases, Saint-Julien Grand Cru Classé, Bordeaux, 2000, 6x75cl

Tasting 

"Léoville Las Cases produces a wine of incredible complexity. For quality reasons, a large part of the production is systematically declassified (up to 67% in the 1990 vintage). With great consistency, the wines reach perfection in most great vintages. Deeply colored, tannic, ample, and concentrated, they have a very high aging potential. Grand wines."
