Pavillon de Léoville Poyferré Château Léoville Poyferré Red wine ● Saint-Julien
2015 75clSecond wine of Château Léoville Poyferré, Pavillon de Léoville Poyferré, AOC Saint-Julien, has benefited from the same care in harvesting and vinification as its big brother, Second Cru Classé du Médoc. Made from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (52%), Merlot (24%), Cabernet Franc (10%) and Petit Verdot (8%) harvested from limestone soil, this dark, fruity red wine, with blackcurrant and blackberry aromas, is aged in barrel for 1 to 2 years. Its velvety, fleshy tannins are supple and elegant. Perfectly balanced, it will be excellent with roast beef.
"Robe noire avec un nez opulent d’un merlot ravageur. Le vin est ample, du gras, riche et plein, pas forcément d’une grande subtilité, mais avec un boisé généreux, des traces de surmaturité et des notes de cuir que l’on retrouvait plus fréquemment il y a une dizaine d’années."
Appearance
Dense, dark garnet-red color, tending toward violet in its youth.
Aroma
The nose is composed of violets and empyreumatic aromas such as wood, torrefaction, vanilla... As the wine ages, it will reveal high-quality game and truffle aromas.

Taste
