The Wine Advocate

"The 2016 Leoville-Las Cases comprises 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Merlot and 11% Cabernet Franc picked between 30 September and 19 October, during which the harvesters were out in the vines for 16 days. It is matured in 90% new oak and delivers 13.60% alcohol and an IPT of 82. It is initially tightly coiled on the nose and needed coaxing from the glass. There are scents of small black cherries, boysenberry, crushed violets and a slight flintiness that emerges with time. The definition is very impressive—you can almost pick the aromas out one by one. The palate is awe-inspiring. The tannins are so filigree, in fact not dissimilar to their neighbor across the border at Château Latour. That seam of graphite lends this Léoville Las-Cases a Pauillac-like personality, but ignoring stylistic similarities, it is the intensity, depth and arching structure that astounds, with detail on the finish that rivets your feet to the spot. Then the finish is ultra-precise, one of the most mineral-driven that I have encountered in almost 20 years visiting the estate, plus it is endowed with one the longest aftertastes you will find in 2016. Yeah, it's good."

Decanter Magazine

"Cabernet Sauvignon makes up 75% of the main blend, with 14% of 80 year old Merlot and 11% of Cabernet Franc, and aged in 90% new oak. It is hard to think of a vintage when this is not a great wine, but in 2016 it is exceptional, comparable to the majestic 1996. It has all the intensity, richness and depth, but it lets the light in. The yield is fairly high at 40hl/ha, with 3.66pH balancing a tannin index of 82IPT. This is the highest ever at this property and yet the wine is elegant, gorgeous and juicy, with an endless array of black fruits and graphite. The tannins are right there pushing at the front of the mouth, but remain pliable. No need to worry about this ageing long into the future. Drinking Window 2027 - 2050"

"75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Merlot, 11% Cabernet Franc picked between 30 September and 19 October, the result aged in 90% new barrels. IPT 82.
Amazing combination of the stoniness and backbone of traditional Las Cases with extraordinary vitality and energy, all overlaid with fully ripe fruit. Such richness! Round tannins but the most youthful wine I have yet encountered. Extremely minerally and thrilling. Jean-Hubert Delon bemoans the fact he will not be alive to see it at its peak, and is convinced it will shut down at some point. It is glorious to taste now."

Jeff Leve

"This powerful elixir has peppery cassis, tobacco, cedar, blackberry and forest scents that cannot be avoided. Powerful, concentrated, mouth filling and very tannic, this could be a modern-day version of what the 1986 Bordeaux was supposed to be. The wine is elongated, regal and driven, stern yet refined. With this much tannin and structure, I'm sure at least 20 years in the cellar are needed before this really starts to shine. Produced from a blend 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Merlot and 6% Cabernet Franc, the wine reached 13.6% alcohol with a pH of 3.66. The harvest took place from September 30 to October 16."

Jean-Marc Quarin

"Le meilleur jamais fait avec le 1982, le 1986 et le 1989. Couleur noire. Nez intense, fin, fruité, pur et floral à l’agitation. Grande entrée en bouche ample, puis le vin se développe très, très fruité, juteux, savoureux et complexe au milieu. Puis il fond, particulièrement tramé, sèveux, avec une grande profondeur de saveurs et un tantinet d’austérité. Assemblage : 75 % cabernet sauvignon, 11 % cabernet franc, 14 % merlot - Degré d’alcool : 13°6 (moyenne plus) – pH : 3,66 (moyenne) – IPT : 82 (jamais aussi haut). Rendement : 40 hl/ha."

Revue du Vin de France

"D'un équilibre souverain, il déploie des flots de saveurs de fruits mûrs et juteux en bouche. Il combine une incroyable profondeur de matière, une masse de tanins de noble raffinement et une allonge interminable. Ce grand médoc tutoie la perfection."

"Barrel Sample. Full of the ripest Cabernet Sauvignon, this is an impressive wine. Dark and tannic, it still has room for considerable fruitiness. It balances dense tannins and layers of black plum fruit along with the freshness of the vintage. Everything is in its place; it just needs time, plenty of time."

"Frisches, kräftiges, komplexes, fein opulentes Bouquet, schwarzer Cassis, Tabak, Zedern, Black Currant, Feuerstein, Trüffel. Dichter, kraftvoller, ausgewogener, eleganter, vielschichtiger Gaumen mit dichter Frucht, viel feinem Tannin, kräftiger, dunkler, vielfältiger Aromatik, sehr langer, cremiger Abgang mit vielen Rückaromen. Kann noch zulegen."

Wine Spectator

"A brick house, with layers of cold charcoal, smoldering tobacco, warm cassis, dark plum and blueberry reduction flavors all working seamlessly together. The charcoal edge underscores the entire finish, which is focused and ridiculously long.—J.M."

"Complexité sensationnelle du dernier tiers de bouche, et expression quasi parfaite du cabernet sauvignon médocain pour 75 %, épaulé et affiné par 11 % de cabernet franc, ce qui devrait donner à réfléchir à ceux qui ont abandonné ce cépage… 14% de merlot et aucun petit-verdot!"

VINOUS

"The 2016 Léoville Las-Cases underwent three more months in barrel than usual, and was bottled in September 2018. It has an extremely intense bouquet that manages to retain otherworldly delineation. It is not as expressive as its peers at this early stage (but then again, it rarely is). Yet there is palpable coiled-up energy on the nose, and you can feel the mineralité. The palate is medium-bodied with super-fine tannin and layers of pure black and blue fruit laced with allspice and a pinch of white pepper. It fans out wonderfully on the finish, which exerts fine grip but never overwhelms. This is undoubtedly one of the best wines ever made by the estate. Close to perfection."

"The 2016 Léoville Las Cases is a majestic, seamless, opulent wine. Yes, I am talking about Las Cases, traditionally one of the Left Bank's most austere, forbiddingly tannic wines. Sumptuous and full-bodied, the 2016 takes over all the senses, with seemingly endless layers of inky, purplish fruit. Mint, lavender and white flowers are some of the many notes that emerge from the exotic, arrestingly beautiful bouquet as the 2016 makes its case for consideration as one of the wines of the vintage. The 2016 got an extra three months in barrel and was therefore bottled on the later side, but that does not appear to have done anything to close the wine down. The 2016 was magnificent on both occasions I tasted it. Put simply, the 2016 Las Cases is a total stunner. Don't miss it! "

"Léoville Las Cases is usually a brutish, powerful wine, especially when young. The 2016, on the other hand, is a wine of total finesse. There is almost no sensation of tannin, even though the wine has the highest degree of tannin ever measured here. Sometimes wines can go from the merely outstanding into the realm of the sublime. That is very much the case with the 2016 Léoville Las Cases. I could describe the aromas and flavors, but that seems superfluous for a wine that delivers so much pure pleasure. Silky (yes, silky) tannins wrap around a super-expressive finish laced with the essence of blue/purplish fruit, crème de cassis, lavender and blueberry jam."

"75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Merlot, 11% Cabernet Franc

Robe pourpre intense. Bouquet intense et complexe révélant son côté juvénile mais également beaucoup de fruit. Il lui faut un peu de temps pour daigner se révéler. Outre un côté herbacé, végétal noble et mentholé, je relève des notes de groseilles et de cassis. A l’aération il révèle également une touche florale avec des notes de violettes. Plus le temps passe, plus le nez gagne en complexité. Je relève des épices telles que cannelle et poivre. Finalement il y a également du genièvre et des notes de cumin croisé. La mise en bouche est compacte, complexe et profonde. Les tannins sont serrés, granuleux et intenses. Ils sont en symbiose avec la structure et offrent un très bel avenir à ce grand vin. Le fruit ne manque pas à l’appel et est présent dès la mise en bouche, jusqu’en finale. Un vin qui met à rude épreuve le côté cérébral et physique du dégustateur. Le passionné du vin, lui, pourra juste savourer, mais il faudra qu’il patiente!"
