Petit Lion de Léoville-Las-CasesSt-Julien 2010
About this product
Petit Lion de Leoville-Las-Cases is the second wine of Leoville-Las-Cases, and in 2010 finds itself made from 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot with the wine bolstered with equal parts Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. The wine is firmly pitched at a primary-fruited, supple, youthful style that is intended for relatively short cellaring or enjoying immediately. The wine is a departure from the 'house-style' of its parent, but does show an essence of what the time wine is capable of. Worth the entry fee.
