Over het wijnhuis Château Léoville Poyferré is 2ème Cru Classé uit Saint-Julien. De oorsprong van het château gaat terug tot 1638. In die tijd was Léoville het grootste landgoed van de Médoc, maar heeft verschillende eigenaren gekend die uiteindelijk resulteerden in een opsplitsing van het château in meerdere huizen. De in Bordeaux bekende Cuvelier-familie is sinds 1979 eigenaar van Château Léoville Poyferré.

Awards "A rich, powerful wine, the 2020 Léoville Poyferré offers up aromas of sweet berries, blueberry liqueur, exotic spices, incense and creamy new oak. Full-bodied, broad and layered, it's deep and concentrated, its ample core of fruit only partially concealing a hefty payload of sweet, powdery, generously extracted tannin. Poyferré is generally the most flamboyant and demonstrative of the three Léovilles, but in 2020, it's chunkier, broader shouldered and more brooding than usual." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"This is really floral on the nose with violets and roses, and some black berries and dark cherries. It’s medium- to full-bodied with firm and polished tannins, and plenty of hazelnut and milk chocolate. Structured, yet so finely textured. So attractive and enticing now but needs three or four years to show what it has. Try after 2026." - James Suckling

"64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot. Very dark colour with black core. Lightly floral (violets), such pure black fruit. Big, chewy but smoothed tannins. Just enough freshness, masses of fruit well-framed by those big tannins. Long, firm, compact. (JH)" - Jancis Robinson

"The 2020 Léoville-Poyferré is every bit as impressive as it was from barrel. If anything, it has gained in freshness and vibrancy with élevage. Dark cherry, plum, mocha, graphite and a kiss of French oak are some of the many notes that infuse the 2020 with tons of character. I especially admire its vertical energy and buttoned up personality. In some recent vintages Léoville-Poyferré has been quite showy, but the 2020 also has a more nuanced side that is hugely appealing." - Vinous

"Of course, this impressive classified growth wine is young. But it's easy to discern its promise. Black fruits and layers of sophisticated tannins are balanced with the wood aging and smoky fruit flavors. This estate in the heart of Saint-Julien has produced a very fine wine, fresh and structured at the same time. Drink from 2026." - Wine Enthusiast

"Supple and generous with mouthwatering acidity, though really quite tannic at this point which does cover up some of the nuance. I like the texture, the frame and the weight, it's clean, polished and well worked, not overdone at all, but this has a sense of potent seduction in the flavours, rich blackcurrant, perfumed and scented. Detailed with lots of stony, slate, and wet stone elements giving a wonderful terroir influence. It's not as immediately charming as the 2019, the tension still prominent, but this will be brilliant in 5-10 years." - Decanter
