Since the 1970s, the twenty hectares of vineyards, located in the heart of the Medoc, on slopes of deep gravel and Aeolian sand, have contributed to the blending of the great wine of Leoville Poyferre. The blend of this wine includes Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, a good amount of Petit Verdot, and traces of Cabernet Franc. In the glass, the wine shows a beautiful garnet red color. Its olfactory profile combines blackcurrant aromas and delicate peppery notes accompanied by a mineral and slightly toasted background. On the palate, it is a rich and round wine, fleshy and fruity. It has good acidity and soft tannins. The finish is long, fine, and persistent. To be fully appreciated, and allow it to release all its fruity fragrance, it is advisable to serve it at a temperature of 16-18 C. It goes wonderfully with grilled red meat.
