Château Léoville Las Cases 2022 is a stunning wine from one of the most prestigious estates in Bordeaux. It is a blend of 83.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10.5% Cabernet Franc, and 6% Merlot, and it is aged for 18 months in French oak barrels.

The wine is deep garnet-purple in color and has aromas of warm cassis, juicy black plums, and pencil shavings. On the palate, it is full-bodied and powerful, with ripe tannins and a long, mineral finish. This wine is a classic example of a Grand Cru Classé Bordeaux, and it is sure to age gracefully for many years to come.

Reviews

This shows no gravity. The tannins are totally melted in the wine and give it fantastic structure, but the texture is so fresh and vivid. Crushed stone. Cloves. Chinese spices. Great finish. Opening and flying away. Orange peel. Very special. Thought-provoking. Endless. 83.5% cabernet sauvignon, 10.5% cabernet franc and 6% merlot.
Looking at the Grand Vin 2022 Château Léoville Las Cases, it has an almost Pauillac-like style in its ripe, powerful aromatics of graphite, lead pencil shavings, cassis, and liquid rock-like minerality. Full-bodied, massively concentrated, and powerful on the palate, it nevertheless stays flawlessly balanced, has just about off-the-charts purity, ripe yet building tannins, and a great finish. This will clearly rank with the truly greats from this address and reminds me slightly of a mix of the 2016 and 2018. It is not, however, going to be for those looking for instant gratification.
