A grippy, strapping style, with bramble-laced black currant, plum and boysenberry reduction flavors carried by a fine-grained structure through the finish, accented by anise, violet and warm cast iron. Very much in the vintage profile. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Best from 2027 through 2038.

Varietal

Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

Appellation

Saint Julien

Saint-Julien, a revered appellation in Bordeaux's Left Bank, epitomizes the finesse and elegance of red Bordeaux wines. Nestled between Pauillac and Margaux, Saint-Julien boasts a remarkable concentration of classified growths, showcasing wines that marry power with refinement. What makes Saint-Julien unique is its well-balanced terroir—gravelly soils, proximity to the Gironde estuary, and a temperate maritime climate. These factors nurture the cultivation of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc, resulting in wines celebrated for their structured tannins, expressive aromatics, and age-worthiness. Saint-Julien's notable châteaux, such as Léoville-Las Cases and Ducru-Beaucaillou, exemplify the region's commitment to quality. The wines exhibit a harmonious blend of dark fruits, cedar, and subtle minerality. Exploring Saint-Julien unveils the essence of Bordeaux winemaking, where tradition and innovation converge to produce wines of timeless allure and sophistication.

James Suckling

Mulberries, blackberries and a touch of black pepper on the nose. Dusty tannins on the full-bodied palate, with a densely packed finish. Pretty long and broad. This needs two to three years in the bottle. Drink from 2027.

Jeb Dunnuck

Ripe currants, cassis, graphite, leafy herbs, and smoky notes all emerge from the 2022 Pavillon De Léoville Poyferré, a full-bodied, rich, layered mouth-filling second wine that has ripe tannins, terrific overall balance, and a great finish. Based on 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Petit Verdot, coming primarily from younger vines, it should keep nicely through 2042.

Decanter

Lovely wild blackberries, liquorice and dark chocolate aromas on the nose. Smooth and succulent, this has bite and tang - the fine tannins giving a powdery mouthfeel while the juicy acidity adds freshness to the ripe bramble fruit. Crushed stones, mint and slate come through towards the finish adding a mineral touch with soft oak spices adding another layer of complexity. Quietly powerful, but balanced and harmonious with a finessed feel.

Vinous Media

The 2022 Pavillon de Léoville-Poyferré is bold and explosive in the glass. A heady second wine, Pavillon packs a pretty serious punch. Dark red-toned fruit, gravel, licorice, incense and chocolate show the extroverted side of the vintage. Ripeness is definitely on the pushed side, while the tannins are pretty imposing, especially for a second wine.

The Wine Independent

This is the second wine of Léoville-Poyferré, made largely on the basis of terroir, including parcels in the west, or to the north on the border of the Pauillac appellation, this is a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot, and the élevage was in used oak, all second fill, for 18 months. Aromatically it presents a pure, perfumed, peach, chalk and mint perfume, with touches of orange peel and cranberry too. The palate is charming, quite light-footed, open and loosely composed, with a modest texture for the vintage, riven with fine seams of tannin, which support the palate and persist into a lightly grained, peppery finish. A good second wine which will drink well, with elegant confidence, although I think I prefer the impact of Moulin Riche more in this vintage. Tasted three times. The alcohol on the label is 14%.
