WA 95 [TASTER:SERENA]Incredible blackcurrants and silky glycerol. All the joyand pleasure of this terrific vintage. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

WA 95[TASTER:PARKER]...one of the vintage's great success stories. The wineboasts an opaque ruby/purple color, and exceptionally pure, beautifullyknit aromas of black fruits, minerals, vanillin, and spice. On theattack, it is staggeringly rich, yet displays more noticeable tanninthan its younger sibling. Exceptionally ripe cassis fruit, the judicioususe of toasty new oak, and a thrilling mineral character intertwinedwith the high quality of fruit routinely obtained by Las Cases, makethis a compelling effort...The finish is incredibly long in thisclassic. Only 35% of the harvest was of sufficient quality for the 1995Leoville-Las-Cases. WA 95 - 02/98
