Saint-Julien - 2nd Grand Cru Classé
94/100 WS
- A blend of 69% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19.5% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc, the 2001 (which represents only 40% of the production) reveals notes of sweet vanillin intermixed with pure black currants, black cherries, and lead pencil shavings. Elegant, it has a saturated purple color, high tannins and a structured, retrograde mouthfeel. This elegant hotel par excellence, Las Cases, needs 5-7 years to reach its plateau of maturity. It will be one of the oldest wines of the Medoc.
- Expected maturity: 2011-2030.
