St-Julien Second Growth Château Léoville Poyferré has had a remarkable run of form since the year 2000 and the 2016 is utterly sublime. A blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot and 2% Cabernet Franc, it is rich, bold and full-bodied, with classical notes of crème de cassis, black cherry, spring flowers and graphite. Though firmly structured and a long way off being ready to drink, the overall balance is superb, with perfectly ripe tannins and wonderfully vibrant acidity.

The 2016 Léoville-Poyferré appears to have closed up a bit on the nose, perhaps a little cowed by the strong showing of the 2015 on this occasion. It is very pure and begins to unfurl with aeration, but the aromatics are not coming out to play today. The palate is medium-bodied with fine boned tannins, beautifully proportioned and symmetrical. The oak is seamlessly integrated with a citrus touch on the finish. This will be awesome, but it will need time in bottle. Tasted at the Léoville-Poyferré vertical at the château with Sara Lecompte Cuvelier.Neal Martin20th September 2022
