The Château Léoville Poyferré 2002, Deuxième Grand Cru Classé, expresses the finesse of Saint-Julien. This red wine, with its notes of blackcurrant and menthol, seduces with its silky tannins and persistent freshness. To enjoy now or to keep, it pairs beautifully with meats and aged cheeses.
Nestled at the heart of the Saint-Julien appellation, this estate classified as a Deuxième Grand Cru in 1855 embodies Bordeaux excellence, combining family tradition and viticultural precision.
- Terroir: Deep gravelly and clay-limestone soils of Saint-Julien, imparting a mineral structure and refined elegance to the wines.
- Vinification: Aged in oak barrels, respecting historic grape varieties and seeking a balance between power and finesse.
To the eye: A garnet red robe with tawny highlights, of silky density and crystalline brilliance.
On the nose: Aromas of ripe blackcurrant and wild blackberry, followed by notes of cedar, blonde tobacco and a saline touch reminiscent of damp undergrowth.
On the palate: Velvety texture, integrated yet still present tannins, a lively acidity carrying a chalky minerality, and a long finish with accents of liquorice and menthol.
Serve at 16-18°C in a Bordeaux glass to release its full complexity.
A vintage marked by contrasting climatic conditions, where freshness and tension dominate, yielding a wine of beautiful vivacity and promising structure.
- Aging potential: 10 to 15 years under optimal conditions (cool cellar, away from light and vibrations).
