      The Wine

      Château Léoville Las Cases, at the northern edge of Saint-Julien beside the Pauillac boundary, has centuries of history and a standing at the very top of the appellation. The 2018 is Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated (80%) with Cabernet Franc (11%) and Merlot (9%), aged largely in new oak barrels (90%).

      This is a powerful, structured wine: concentrated dark fruit over firm, well-integrated tannins, with spice, tobacco and a crushed-rock minerality that runs into a very long finish. The half bottle is a clever way to taste a legendary estate young — halves evolve a little faster, so the 2018’s depths open sooner.

      Questions

      Drink now or cellar?

      It can be enjoyed now with a two-hour decant, but it is built to age — and halves mature a touch faster than full bottles.

      Why is Las Cases so highly regarded?

      Its vineyards sit on exceptional gravel beside Pauillac, and the estate’s selection is famously strict — the wines rival the Médoc’s First Growths in depth.

      How much is in a half bottle?

      37.5cl — half a standard bottle, roughly two generous glasses.
