Winemaker and Vineyard: Every great story takes root in a particular place, a kind of setting that gives it all its soul. That of Léoville Poyferré is anchored in one of the most intimate communal appellations of the Médoc: Saint-Julien. A true jewel polished by the incessant flows of the Garonne, the soil of Saint-Julien has acquired its nobility over the centuries. Thus, under the impulse of nature, the 920 hectares of the appellation have become so many gardens with multiple profiles, but possessing a common thread: the grave. Proud standard of Saint-Julien, this diversity of gravel soil is at the origin of the richness of our terroir and offers us the most beautiful of palettes to compose our wines. leoville-poyferre.fr
Tasting: Of a medium to deep garnet-purple color, the 2017 Léoville Poyferré requires a little patience to reveal pretty aromas of violets, Black Forest cake and blueberry preserves with hints of raspberry leaves, roses, cigar box and fragrant earth. Medium-bodied, the palate has a quiet intensity with many subtle layers and a well-balanced structure of soft, fine-grained tannins, for a long and refreshing finish. robertparker.com (03.16.2020)
