Description
Château Léoville Las Cases 1978
St. Julien, 2ème Cru Classé
u. 1bn, 2vts, 2ts, 6t/hs, 1hs, slightly bin soiled labels, 6 nicked and scuffed labels, 6 peeling labels, 2 slightly corroded capsules, 2 slightly raised corks
The first vintage after the late Michel Delon took over complete control from his father. In 2015, a deep, dense, utterly 'nostalgic' nose of very top, classed growth Cabernet Sauvignon from near the Gironde. Massive black fruit flavour, vigorous and yet soft, and with lovely freshness at the end. Finish of cassis. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
