The 2002 Leoville Poyferre is medium garnet with a touch of brick. It has quite an earthy / leathery nose showing a good amount of evolution, with a core of prunes and blackcurrant pastilles plus hints of fallen leaves, dried herbs, tobacco, and camphor. Medium-bodied, the palate is coated with mint-laced black fruit preserves, framed by a light grip of chewy tannins and appealing freshness, finishing with a minty kick.Lisa Perrotti-Brown29th June 2022

The 2002 Léoville-Poyferré has an open nose with dusky black fruit, melted tar and a touch of pencil box; more fruit here compared to other Saint-Julien wines. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly rustic tannins, a touch of blackberry pastilles, tobacco, allspice and light graphite notes towards the Japanese nori-tinged finish. Probably reaching its peak now, but with the substance to offer another 12 to 15 years drinking pleasure. Tasted at the château. Neal Martin27th September 2022
