Château Léoville Poyferré Saint Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 1996

Ratings on Delectable

Jay Kline Delectable Pro

Opened and double decanted several hours prior to service; enjoyed over the course of a few hours. The 1996 pours a deep ruby color with a near opaque core; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears and some signs of fine sediment. On the nose, the wine is vinous with a lovely combination of ripe and desiccated fruit: cassis, brambles, horse blanket, cigar box, old leather, earth and spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. Another lovely and immensely charming Poyferré. Drink now with a decant and through 2046.

A reminder that good Bordeaux just needs a little time- out of 6L

Drinking very well! Deep and concentrated with cedar-y minty notes. Sweet cassis and integrated tannins. Lovely.
