Issue Issue 108

($73-$89) Good full medium ruby. Subdued, slightly roasted nose combines cassis, cherry and chocolate mint. Chocolatey-sweet but less deep and expressive than the '02 and '01. Offers good currant and cherry flavors but seems a bit dry-edged and medicinal for a 2000, without quite the harmony of components of the subsequent vintages here.

Mid crimson with a bit of evolution. Fragrant. Much less concentrated than the Barton but an attractive expression of the vintage and appellation. Dry overall and quite sinewy. You could start to drink this even though it is far from its apogee.

Drink Dates 2009-2030

Wow, this wine has really come on strong. A brilliant effort, it boasts an opaque purple color in addition to a gorgeously sweet nose (make that explosive nose) of blackberries and creme de cassis intermixed with minerals, smoke, and earth. The 2000 is opulent, full-bodied, and much more accessible than either of its two Leoville siblings, Leoville Las Cases or Leoville Barton, with low acidity, sweet tannin, and a layered, sumptuous finish. It continues to improve dramatically and looks to be a great success, rivaling the brilliant 1996 and 1990.

Superb. Vivid, with lovely aromas of berries, minerals, toasted oak and leather. Full-bodied, with extremely well-integrated tannins and a long finish. A wine to remember. Best ever from this estate. 20,000 cases made.

A fantastic representation of St Julian. Chassis and dark fruits, lavender, leather and earthy tones. Still very fresh and vibrant, the tannins have softened and the wine is very well balanced. Should continue to develop for a few years yet.

Amazingly acidic and lots of tannin for a 11 year old wine. Acidity/tannins were however, nicely balanced. Lots of red berries, dark chocolate and a little vanilla. This is going to be a great wine, try again mid 2012. I drank this wine when it was much younger ~5 years ago and it seemed more ready then .. strange !

Fruit forward nose, cherry and leather. Very well balanced, medium sweetness with a taste of raisins and leather. Tannins still a little strong, but drinking nicely. Will get better. On the nose dark fruits with a cherry undercurrent and hints of cedar and leather. Cherry pops in the mouth behind big tannins, young with no finish at this time

If it is possible to be under the radar and still be a second growth then this wine does exactly that. Great color with lots of exuberant fruit and new oak. Strong primary aromas of cassis, blackberry, and toast. Californian in orientation with tons of upfront flavors. Drink 2007 (to catch the fruit) to 2018.
