Weinwisser
Tiefes Purpur, satt in der Mitte mit lila Rand. Konzentriertes Bouquet mit reifen Brombeeren, dahinter rote Pflaumen, ein Hauch Zimt, Lakritze und Burley- Tabak. Am vielschichtigen Gaumen mit seidiger Textur und engmaschigem Tanninkorsett, man spürt das Lagerpotenzial, trotzdem bewegt sich das Schwergewicht leichtfüssig wie Muhammed Ali im Ring. Im gebündelten Finale mit schwarzen zerstossenen Beeren, tiefgründiger Terroirwürze und Wacholder. Gratulation zu dieser Top-Leistung!

Chewy and rich this year with lots of ripe tannins and solid depth of fruit. Chocolate and walnuts to the blue fruit. It’s full-bodied. Plenty of fruit at the end. Excellent length.

The 2019 Léoville-Poyferré has a typically seductive bouquet with layers of ripe black fruit laced with tobacco, sous-bois, touches of marmalade and dried orange peel. Give it another hour and more blue fruit begins to emerge. The palate is medium-bodied with lavish, luxuriant black fruit and a creamy texture that is instantly seductive. It is a more opulent Saint-Julien than the Barton with a satin-like texture on the finish. If you love the style of Léoville-Poyferré then you will adore this. 

Wine Advocate 
The 2019 Léoville Poyferré is showing very well in bottle, wafting from the glass with aromas of crème de cassis and wild berries mingled with notions of licorice, loamy soil, cigar wrapper and smoke. Full-bodied, velvety and polished, it's broad and enveloping, with an ample core of fruit, ripe tannins and succulent acids, concluding with a long, precise finish. Invariably the most sumptuous of the three Léovilles, featuring some 35% Merlot, the 2019 is a terrific effort that will offer a wide drinking window.
