St Julien, 2nd Growth Classification, Bordeaux
Magnum Bottle

Léoville Las Cases is the most legendary wine of Saint-Julien: on a quality par with the Médoc's first growths, without the hefty price premium to match. It is a prime example of a Bordeaux 'super-second' - a second growth operating at a first growth level. Léoville Las Cases is also one of the largest, oldest and most picturesque of the Médoc's classified Bordeaux growths. Grapes are fermented at lower than average temperatures, which is partially responsible for the wines displaying some of the most exotic aromas and aromatic richness in the Médoc.

Château Léoville Las Cases, situated in the esteemed Saint-Julien appellation of Bordeaux, France, stands as a beacon of excellence and tradition in the world of fine wine. …

Pauillac 5me Cru Classe, Bordeaux

*** 88 Points - Neil Martin Wine Journal ***

Reviews:
"This has a superb nose, very lifted and well-defined, cedar, blackcurrant, smoke and a touch of burnt toast. Just soars from the glass. The palate is full-bodied, ripe tannins, beautiful balance and poise with a sense of controlled opulence towards the finish. It comes across very natural, black cherries, blueberry, a touch of orange zest. This is certainly an over-performing wine for the vintage and shows better than previous bottles, although it did fade a little when returning after 15 minutes in the glass. Drink now-2015. Tasted September 2009. …

Justino's - Malvasia

"There won’t be a lot of this wine on the palate so it is a rare privilege to have tasted it. Amber in colour the wine is woody to the nose as it should be, it is on the palate that this wine reveals itself, extraordinary levels of layered flavour, nuts and candied orange, sweet but with an utterly bracing acidity that keeps the wine from being at all cloying. A rare wine and a world class wine, a true delight and a wine to share amongst the best of friends." Tasting Notes

Justino's - Tinta Negra

This wine is a blend of several grape varieties grown in the island, predominately Tinta Negra, harvested in 1997.

"A dark amber colour with a lucid and consistent yellow edge. More than a Marsala, the impact of the aroma is like a great Vincotto from the Marche region, although it is much finer. The bouquet has less caramel and is less volatile with more notes of prune, dried fruit and coffee. The mouthfeel is sweet and caramel-like with notes of black tea and coffee, while the finish is invigorated by a distinct acidity." Silver Award -San Francisco International Wine Competition

"The 1997 is an elegant Port, though having some good depth. Its tannins were melted and some secondary flavours were already starting to show, the fruit was chaging from ripe plums to candied figs. It is reaching its 2nd plateau of maturity.
Passadouro is an early drinker but this 1997 is one of the good port wines they made in the 90's.

Warre’s Vintage Port 1997 is a beautifully structured, classic wine from an excellent declared vintage. The 1997 Ports were initially somewhat overshadowed by the blockbuster 1994s, but over time, many—including Warre’s—have proven themselves to be elegant, long-lived, and deeply satisfying, especially for those who appreciate more refined, aromatic Ports.

The nose is expressive, offering violets, dark cherries, blackberries, and subtle floral and herbal tones, followed by secondary notes like cedar, cocoa, and warm spice. …
