Helped by a 98 point Parker rating for its 2003, Léoville-Poyferré is finally
getting the credit it deserves. Didier Cuvelier calls 2007 a great restaurant
vintage - like 1999 but better made - but this feels like excessive modesty for
a wine of this class. Intensely concentrated, minerally and stylish, it is
clearly one of the wines of the vintage. A serious, fragrant nose leads on to a
precise, complex palate with finely tuned, supple tannins, generous blackberry
and kirsch fruit and mocha and leather hints. This is another great success
from the most underrated member of the Léoville clan.

For a long time this estate was a poor relation of the Léoville clan, however,
improvements in quality have been noticeable since the early 1990s. This year
looks set to become a real success for Poyferré. The blend is 70% Cabernet
Sauvignon, 25% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot, with the dominant variety's creamy
cassis character very evident on the nose. This is a focused and well-defined
wine with gorgeous pure fruit flavours, fresh acidity and firm tannins in
perfect harmony. A very classically-styled St Julien.

"The feminine nose of this fantastic Poyferré gives way to a palate with
an intriguing savoury edge and perfectly balanced acidity and weight. It is
full bodied and fleshy at first yet gives way to a streamlined, fresh finish.
This 2006 is definitely worth a look." Drink 2016-2030.

Ch. Léoville Poyferré was always the perennially underestimated
property of the three Léovilles, so we are delighted to see that it is
now finally getting the credit it deserves. Quality has soared since Didier
Cuvelier took control in the 1970s and in the last 20 years Didier, with the
assistance of the renowned Michel Rolland, has turned this into one of St
Julien's finest estates.

"Very promising, elegant and rich" (Wines of the Year - Highly Recommended
4/5 Stars- Decanter Nov 08)
Didier Cuvelier has made an absolutely brilliant wine at Léoville
Poyferré this year. The voluminous fruit of the vintage really
complements Poyferré's style. This is all black cherries and raspberries
with hints of cedar, but at an intensity never seen before in this wine.
Like so many of the top châteaux in 2005 this starts in quite a
restrained manner but then grows and grows until the flavours seem to explode
in your mouth. And as for the finish, well, that just goes on and on. The breed
and elegance here is amazing.
