2006 Chateau Leoville Las Cases

The 2006 Château Léoville Las Cases from Bordeaux, France exudes elegance and finesse. On the nose, rich aromas of blackcurrants, blackberries, and plums mingle with hints of cedar, tobacco, and a touch of vanilla. On the palate, this medium-bodied wine delivers a symphony of flavours, with ripe dark fruits, spice, and earthy undertones. The tannins are firm yet velvety, providing a structured backbone to the wine. With its deep ruby colour and a long, lingering finish, this vintage showcases the exceptional quality of grapes from Château Léoville Las Cases. It is a harmonious blend of 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Merlot, and 3% Cabernet Franc, displaying the best of Bordeaux's renowned terroir. This wine is drinking beautifully now but has the potential to age gracefully for another decade. A true masterpiece from one of France's most prestigious châteaux.
