2023 Chateau Leoville Poyferre - St. Julien (Bordeaux Future ETA 2026)
95-97 Points
"The 2023 Léoville-Poyferré was picked from September 14 until

October 5 at 52.78hL/ha and aged in slightly less new oak than usual,

simply because of the large volume. In fact, some of the lots

commenced their malolactic fermentation in vat rather than barrel.

This has an intense bouquet with black cherries and iodine, becoming

more floral with aeration. The palate opens with a medium body and

pliant tannins, fleshy and ripe, dovetailing into a dense and multi-tiered

mid-palate. Typical Poyferré in style, blood orange and light graphite

notes are embroidered into the ripe black fruit, and there is noticeable

glycerol on the finish. It is perhaps the most opulent of the three

Léovilles, and yet it arrives with a modest 13.1% alcohol. This is a

contender for the best Saint-Julien in show.
