About

A wine of both power and finesse, Château Léoville Poyferré 2022 is a quintessential expression of Saint-Julien’s elegance and depth. As a Second Growth (2ème Grand Cru Classé) from the 1855 Classification, this estate consistently produces wines of remarkable structure, complexity, and aging potential. The 2022 vintage, shaped by a warm and dry growing season, has resulted in a wine of exceptional concentration, showcasing ripe fruit, polished tannins, and a seamless balance between richness and freshness.

Producer

The origin of the property dates back to 1638. At that time, Léoville was the largest domain in the Médoc domain. Since then, it has fragmented into several plots of land over time. Léoville Poyferré's grand vin legacy began in 1840, fifteen years later it will be consecrated as the second classified growth. Didier Quuelel has managed the fate of this pearl since 1979. Thanks to its outstanding past and the last three decades of efforts and investments, Château Léoville Poyferré and regained excellence: - 80 hectares of vineyards to make wine - Modern winemaking equipment shows a perfect balance between modern and traditional, reflecting the latest technological advances.

Tasting notes

A deep, inky purple hue hints at the wine’s concentration and depth. The nose is expansive and layered, revealing ripe blackcurrant, cassis, and black cherry, intertwined with notes of cedar, graphite, dark chocolate, and violets. On the palate, the 2022 vintage is opulent yet precise, with luscious dark fruit, silky tannins, and a finely tuned acidity that ensures freshness. Hints of espresso, licorice, and crushed stone add complexity, while the long, mineral-driven finish leaves an impression of power and refinement. This is a wine built for long-term aging, promising to evolve beautifully over the next 20-30 years.

Pairing

The structure and intensity of Château Léoville Poyferré 2022 make it a perfect match for robust, richly flavored dishes. A dry-aged ribeye steak with black pepper and rosemary will highlight the wine’s bold tannins and dark fruit, while a rack of lamb with garlic and thyme mirrors its herbal undertones. For a more refined pairing, duck breast with a red wine reduction enhances the wine’s silky texture and deep complexity. Finally, aged cheeses such as Comté or Stilton offer a luxurious contrast to the wine’s richness, making for a truly indulgent experience.

Bordeaux

All products from this region

Bordeaux wines are considered to be the most prestige and renowned in the world. The region is mainly known for its dry red wines made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot grapes, and one can almost always find the word Château (French for „castle”) on Bordeaux wine labels. In order to understand the style of wine most desirable for your taste, it is recommended to try different samples from the Left as well as the Right Bank of The Gironde. Both banks differ not only with different soil, but also with the share of specific wines. There are several classifications in Bordeaux but the main one, introduced in 1855, hasn’t changed since and still impacts wine prices nowadays. A few years later, in 1936, an alternative classification system - Crus Bourgeois - was established. Bordeaux is known for a commerce praxis called en primeur - it means that a buyer can purchase wines immediately after harvest and prior to production for a substantially lower price, thus obtaining the opportunity to sell them for a larger profit later in the future. Bordeaux wines can be described as big, complex and with a strong character, but very friendly at the same time so that each and every wine lover could find something tasty and suitable for a great wine night.
