From Parker:

Wine Advocate # 115 Feb 1998 90 Drink: 2005 - 2030

While not as backward as the 1996, the opaque purple-colored 1995 is a tannic, unevolved, dense, concentrated wine that will require 8-10 years of cellaring. The 1995 exhibits pain grille, blackcurrant, mineral, and subtle tobacco in its complex yet youthful aromatics. Powerful, dense, concentrated cassis and blueberry flavors might be marginally softer than in the 1996, but there is still plenty of grip and structure to this big wine. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2030.

Wine Advocate # 109 Feb 1997 (88-90) Drink: 2001 - 2020

Leoville-Poyferre is making greater and greater efforts to push the quality level closer to that of its neighbor, Leoville-Las-Cases. The hiring of the famed oenologist, Michel Rolland, the beginning of malolactic fermentation in barrel (started in 1994), a stricter selection process, and the construction of a superb new cuverie are all signs that Leoville-Poyferre is set to emerge as one of the stars of the northern Medoc. Sweet, jammy, blackcurrant, and spicy oak aromas reveal few signs of evolution. Beautifully integrated tannin is barely noticeable in this suave, elegant, concentrated yet strikingly well-balanced wine. With a saturated purple color, admirable sweetness of fruit, fine purity and extract, and a gracious personality, the 1995 Leoville-Poyferre will be at its peak between 2001-2020.

Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition # B1 Jan 1998 89 Drink: 2001 - 2020

Sweet, jammy, black currant, and spicy oak aromas reveal few signs of evolution. Beautifully integrated tannin is barely noticeable in this suave, elegant, concentrated yet strikingly well-balanced wine. With a saturated purple color, admirable sweetness of fruit, fine purity and extract, and a gracious personality, the 1995 Leoville-Poyferre will be at its peak between 2001-2020. Last tasted 1/97

Wine Advocate # 104 Apr 1996 (88-90) Drink: 1996 - 2016

The 1995 reveals an impressively saturated black/purple color, followed by a sweet, chocolatey, cassis-scented nose with hints of hickory smoke, toast, and charcoal. The wine is low in acidity, with excellent, possibly outstanding concentration, a layered feel in the mouth which adds to the appealing texture, and a long, thick, sumptuous, tannic finish. This should be a Leoville-Poyferre to rival the 1990, perhaps even the 1982. Stay tuned. It will unquestionably last for 20 years.
No other than Libourne's Michel Rolland has been brought in as the consulting oenologist for Leoville-Poyferre. As a result, malolactic fermentation is now being done in oak casks, and the wine has taken on greater richness and intensity.
