Natalie's Score: 95/100

A remarkable Bordeaux red wine from the superb 2006 vintage that still has a long life ahead of it! Leoville Las Cases is known for creating benchmark wines in the Medoc region. Although it hails from the St. Julien district, it has the longevity and towering structure of Paulliac. The estate owner is Jean-Hubert Delon. Decant 1-2 hours. Although this wine is technically classified as a second growth, it is first rate. This is one of five store product codes designated to the same wine in this release. Pair with filet mignon.

Donna rated this wine as 95/100
Only a meager 40% of the 2006 crop was bottled for the estate's flagship final blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14.5% Merlot, and the remainder, Cabernet Franc grapes. Still has great cellaring potential. - Community Wine Reviews
