2023 Château Léoville Poyferré Saint-Julien Grand Cru Classé

EN PRIMEUR DISCOUNT VALID UNTIL 31/12/2025 - DELIVERY SPRING 2026

The 2023 Léoville Poyferré is a blend of 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot. The wine has a deep garnet purple color and bursts from the glass with enticing notes of chocolate-covered cherries, blueberry pie, dried mulberries and blackcurrant syrup plus suggestions of camphor, espresso, spice cake and tea. It is medium to full bodied on the palate with good freshness with blackberry preserves and exotic herbal layers. An already incredibly impressive wine that will strengthen the beautiful fruit even more after the end of the barrel maturation when the tannins have been absorbed.

In the heart of the Médoc, Château Léoville Poyferré has always been one of the most prestigious wineries. There was once a single domain called Léoville that was famous throughout the region. Over the course of history, it has come into the possession of various families through heirs and major events. In 1865 the domain came into the hands of the bankers Baron d'Erlanger and Armand Lalande. They were faced with setbacks in the form of phylloxera and mildew epidemics. Today the castle belongs to the Cuvelier family. They have invested enormously since the 1980s with extraordinary results. Today the château is one of the top in Saint-Julien.
