No Reserve

Description

A very mature bottle of Chateau Leoville Las Cases from the 1940, arguably the top estate in the St.Julien AOC and a 2eme Grand Cru Classee.

The bottle is in fair conditin given its age, with acceptable fill level (mid to high-shoulder), considerable fading and soiling on the label, a relatively dark mature colour and quite a vit of corrosion and damages to the capsule (see images).

The bottle itself shows typical pre-1950s hallmarks of glass bottle manufacturing, in particular blue coloration of glass which was typical especially during the war and a typical glass bottom shape with manufacturing irregularities.
