The exceptional qualities of the terroir of the Grand Clos made it possible to erase the climatic excesses. The end of winter brought mild temperatures, followed by a humid and cool spring. The summer conditions were dry and hot, but still within the ten-year average. The vines benefited from a good hydric stress relayed by good thermal amplitudes before the harvest, for an optimal maturation and a maintained acidity. The Leoville Las Cases offers abrilliant fruit with intense aromas, freshness, very tasty and long tannins, all for an exceptional ageing capacity.

Blend: 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc

This is an immense wine. Made from 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, it shows great structure, richness and aging potential. The tannins are ripe, showing the gentlest of extraction and are what is going to drive this wine for many years.
