รายละเอียดสินค้า
The blessing of a great terroir
As the devastating effects of frosts have a serious impact on the viticultural landscape of Bordeaux, Saint-Julien can give praise thanks to Saint Vincent, patron Saint of the vineyard workers, blessed by his protection from the worst of the exceptional frosts and safeguarded for the duration of the vintage.
2017, not too dissimilar to its companions of misfortune in sevens, started off on the wrong foot. A very dry winter and late severe spring frosts were then turned around with a warm pleasant summer.
This beautiful weather coupled with our unique terroir really raised the bar for our 2017 vintage. The result is a wine that is dense, marked with an exquisite aromatic expression, all wrapped in a vintage with surprising cellaring potential. An outsider, quite contrary to its reputation!
wine score
95 points Wine Enthusiast
This wine brings balance to the solid tannins and luscious fruits. Firm tannins plus layers of acidity give freshness and great aging ability. The wine has a great future. Drink from 2024. *Cellar Selection* (RV)
94 points Wine Advocate
Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 Léoville Poyferré needs a little coaxing to reveal pretty scents of violets, Black Forest cake and blueberry preserves with hints of raspberry leaves, roses, cigar box and fragrant earth. Medium-bodied, the palate has a quiet intensity with loads of subtle layers and a well-poised frame of soft, fine-grained tannins, finishing long and refreshing. (LPB) 94+
93 points Wine Spectator
Warm and rich in feel, with layers of steeped plum, fig and blackberry paste flavors cruising along, framed by cocoa notes and backed by a swath of graphite structure on the tar-tinged finish. Shows a bit more heft than purity, but this is rock-solid nonetheless. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Best from 2023 through 2037. (JM)
95 points James Suckling
A red with currant and blueberry aromas and flavors and some citrus and vanilla. Medium body and creamy, integrated tannins. Shows finesse and depth for the vintage. One of the best from the appellation. Serious for the vintage.Profile

รสสัมผัส (Palate)
Full-bodied and silky, the tannins are quite muscular. Retro-olfaction further releases notes of juicy ripe fruit. The finish is supple with a hint of liquorice, giving it a lovely balance.
สี (Colour)
This bright, limpid vintage displays a deep garnet color with purple highlights.
กลิ่น (Aroma)
Pronounced notes of coffee give way to the freshness of blackberry and currant. A delicate hint of oak brings more depth to the ensemble.
