Château Léoville Las Cases – The Lion of Saint-Julien

In the heart of the Saint-Julien appellation, where the deep gravel soils of the Médoc absorb the sun’s warmth whilst the cooling waters of the Gironde create a unique microclimate, stands a vineyard that combines the power and elegance of Bordeaux like no other. Château Léoville Las Cases – a name that echoes through the centuries, referring to an estate founded in 1638, making it one of the oldest estates in the region.

The history of this exceptional estate began in the 17th century, when it was known as ‘Mount Moytié’. In the mid-18th century, it gained great renown thanks to the innovations of Blaise-Alexandre de Gasq. However, the French Revolution marked a decisive turning point: the sprawling Domaine de Léoville was divided into three parts between 1826 and 1840. Three-fifths of the original estate became what is now known as Château Léoville Las Cases. The other two parts are the famous neighbouring estates, Léoville Barton and Léoville Poyferré.

In the famous 1855 Bordeaux Classification, Léoville Las Cases was awardedthe status of Deuxième Grand Cru Classé. However, this classification as a ‘Second Growth’ belies the true greatness of this wine. It is regarded as the strongest candidate for promotion to Premier Cru and is often described by connoisseurs as a ‘Super Second’, whose quality and prices regularly rivale those of the legendary First Growths .

The estate has been runby the Delon familysince the late 19th century . Today, Jean-Hubert Delon represents the estate as the fourth generation. At its heart lies the Clos Léoville Las Cases, a vineyard of around 50 hectares completely enclosed by a wall , which borders directly on that of Château Latour. In total, the vineyards cover 97 hectares of vine-growing area. The plots are predominantly planted with Cabernet Sauvignon (around 76 to 79 per cent), supplemented by Merlot and Cabernet Franc.

In the cellar, the estate prioritises the utmost precision and uncompromising selection. In some vintages, up to 67 per cent of the harvest is discarded for the Grand Vin. The Grand Vin is aged for 18 months in French barriques, 80 to 90 per cent of which are new. The result is red wines of breathtaking depth, remarkable longevity and an unmistakable character – a Cabernet-dominated giant that is a titan in its youth and matures over the years into one of Bordeaux’s greatest wines.
