Tasting note
Second wine of Chateau Leoville Poyferrre and Chateaux Moulin Riche.
A firm, chewy red with currants and plums and some chocolate and hazelnut undertones. Medium body. Flavorful palate and a linear finish. Needs time to soften. Second wine of Château Léoville Poyferré.

With some 80 hectares under vine, Léoville Poyferré's parcels are inter-fingered with those belonging to the Delon and Barton families by the river and on the plateau of Saint-Julien. The soils are cultivated less frequently and less deeply these days, and conversion to organic methods is gradually being rolled out, parcel by parcel, some being easier to farm this way than others. Winemaking features a five- to eight-day cold soak, followed by comparatively long macerations, and maturation is in 80% new oak, with lots destined for new barrels completing their malolactic fermentation in barrel. Combined with an elevated percentage of Merlot in the vineyards (though the tendency here, as elsewhere, is to replant with more Cabernet Sauvignon), this delivers the richest, fleshiest, most flamboyant of the three Léoville estates, but while it's generally the most open out of the gates of the three, that hasn't come at the expense of longevity. The 2019 vintage is a great success at this address.
