Château Léoville Las Cases, St Julien, 2009, Magnum
Hailing from the St Julien appellation, the 2009 vintage comprises a traditional blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc. The 1.5-litre magnum format houses a structured profile of blackcurrant, cedar, and graphite. Fine tannins and a persistent finish result from ageing in French oak. Decanting helps reveal complex aromatic layers before serving with roasted meats.
