Chateau Leoville Poyferre 2eme Grand Cru Classe, Saint Julien 2015

Tasting Notes:

The aromas of the wine are subtle, sensual and luxurious aroma of the wine is woven from notes of black cherry, red and shades of tobacco. It  has a delicate, sweet, rich taste with soft notes of ripe black grapes and flowers. 

Tasting Notes:

The resulting blend displays a garnet colour lined by light crimson hues. Pleasing aromas of blackberries, blackcurrants A wine with definition and refinement. Hints of tobacco and chocolate. Full body, super fine and flavorful. Juicy and savory. The walnut and spice on the end is gorgeous. 94-95 JS 

Tasting Notes:

The 2015 Gazin has a perfumed bouquet with layers of black cherry, raspberry coulis and truffle scents, more welcoming and sensual than the wines a decade ago from barrel when they intermittently felt under-ripe. There is none of that here for sure. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit on the entry. There is excellent structure here, a masculine Gazin with plenty of grip, counterbalanced by abundant tertiary, tobacco-tinged black fruit.

Tasting Notes:

This grand Pauillac property delivers awesome flavours in 2015. You can't help but enjoy this magnificently ripe, sturdy, smoky claret. It has the cedary Pauillac characteristic. The tannins are pleasingly silky, and there is tremendous balance. Creamy blackberries and a precise shape, lead to a fruit-dominant finish hat tingles in the mouth. It needs some bottle age, but it follows the tradition of great wine from this leading estate. It's rich and powerful, but elegant and sweet.

Tasting Notes:

Brimming with elegant damson fruit and an intriguing note of eucalyptus, there is an attractive and enticing level complexity here. Beautifully fresh like all the best wines from 2015, there is a depth of fruit, generous and concentrated, which is another hallmark of the vintage. Ultra-fine tannins and a delicious, crunchy finish complete the picture. This is clearly a fine performance from this lovely estate.

Tasting Notes:

It has a fragrant bouquet with delineated red cherries, crushed strawberry and hints of vanilla from the 100% new oak. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, ripe and rounded in the mouth, very well balanced and very smooth.
