The spectacular 2003 Leoville Poyferre exhibits a dense purple color with a touch of lightening at the edge as well as notes of creosote, barbecue smoke, jammy black currants, licorice and spice box. This intense, voluptuously textured, full-bodied St.-Julien possesses low acidity and ripe tannin. Still fresh and exuberant, it is just entering its plateau of full maturity where it should remain for 10-15+ years. Drink 2014-2029

Very dark crimson. Very sweet, almost coconut notes. Rich, opulent with lovely freshness underneath - fine-grained tannins giving real zip to the wine. There is energy here and great sweetness initially but eventually a nice dry finish.

Impressive and huge. Pure cassis on the nose. Thick and powerful, with loads of fruit. A big surprise of the vintage.
Score: 95 James Suckling, February 2006
I have sampled this wine myself and it is a knockout. The fruit has incredible depth and character. Although a hot year, the wine is still well structured and defined. Plums, licorice and violets with a little pepper on the palate reflecting the heat of the year. Succulent and voluptuous, this one has the legs to keep going another 15 - 20 years but is supremely approachable now. One to love. MrPosle 2017.
