Scoring 98-100/100 Parker points this Bordeaux red wine from the very good 1996 vintage is "My tasting notes for this wine begin with the following words "wow wow wow!" I had been looking forward to retasting this 1996 since I had it in spring '97 and I was not disappointed by its evolution. The wine possesses an opaque purple color and an attention-getting staggering sweet nose that offers the essence of black currant fruit kirsch and minerals as well as the essence of Leoville-Las-Cases's personality. It is fabulously concentrated with the sur-maturite (over-ripeness) of Cabernet Sauvignon one of the wine's most undeniable hallmarks. When measured the tannin level is extremely high but you would never know that when tasting this wine because of the massive amount of extract purity and virtually perfect equilibrium. Despite its rare combination of unbridled power and complexity this wine has beaucoup de finesse as well as a finish that lasts close to 45 seconds. A candidate for a perfect rating it is a modern day legend in the making. Will it surpass the '86 and '82? Time will tell. Only 40% of the total harvest was used in the 1996 with the final blend containing a slightly higher percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon than usual." Drink now - 2030. The perfect 15th Anniversary gift. This vintage wine is shipped in a deluxe silk lined wooden presentation box with four wine accessories (corkscrew wine pourer drip stopper & wine stopper) [worth £14.99] and comes with our limited edition 'Great First Growths of Bordeaux' Print (worth £49.97) at no extra cost.
