Saint Julien

2004 Saint Julien Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc

Chateau Leoville Poyferre Saint Julien is a stunning red wine that beautifully showcases the characteristics of its Bordeaux home. This 2004 vintage is a harmonious blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc, resulting in a wine that is full-bodied with a persistent richness on the palate. The acidity balances the opulence, providing a lively freshness that enhances its overall elegance. The fruit intensity is pronounced, featuring notes of blackberry, plum, and dark cherry, while subtle hints of cedar and tobacco add complexity. The tannins are notably structured, contributing to the wine's aging potential and depth, making it a striking choice for both current enjoyment and future cellaring. With a dry profile, this wine reflects the classic sophistication of the Saint Julien region, perfect for pairing with hearty meats or rich sauces.
