The Léoville Las Cases 2007 is a refined and classically proportioned wine from a cooler, more restrained vintage. The nose is elegant and layered, offering blackcurrant, red cherry, graphite, cedar, and subtle floral notes, with hints of tobacco leaf and earth. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and precise, with firm yet finely integrated tannins and a fresh, linear acid backbone. Flavors of cassis, red currant, savory spice, and mineral tones unfold gradually, emphasizing clarity over power. The texture is taut and disciplined, reflecting the château’s rigorous selection. The finish is long, dry, and composed—an understated, intellectual Las Cases that rewards patience and careful appreciation.
Chateau Leoville Las Cases is one of Bordeaux’s most revered Second Growth estates, universally regarded as a “Super Second” for its rigor, pedigree, and extraordinary longevity. Located in Saint-Julien and bordering Pauillac, the château benefits from exceptional gravel soils and a Cabernet Sauvignon–dominant profile that delivers structure and authority. The historic Clos Léoville Las Cases is farmed with uncompromising precision, and only the finest parcels contribute to the Grand Vin. Winemaking is classical, severe, and patient, prioritizing tension and long-term evolution over early charm. Las Cases wines are famously slow to mature, often demanding decades of cellaring. At their peak, they stand among the most cerebral expressions of the Left Bank.
