Château Léoville Poyferré 2007

A truly “charming vintage”

Despite generally difficult weather conditions, thanks to Man’s hard work and the exceptional terroir, along with the more clement weather in September, a « charming » vintage was born.

Press reviews

Vinous Media – Neal Martin : 91 (20.09.2022)

“The 2007 Léoville Poyferré has a bright, vivid and playful bouquet with red cherries and crushed strawberry mixed with tobacco, sous-bois and smoke aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, well judged acidity, harmonious and quite fleshy on the finish. This is a deceptively seductive, easygoing Poyferré, not complex but built to give pleasure.”

The Wine Cellar Insider – Jeff Leve : 91 (27.11.2020)

“Medium-bodied, close or at full maturity, the wine is soft, polished, round and charming. Instead of power, it offers a measured dose of ripe plums, licorice and espresso. Drink this over the next 5 years or so before the fruit fades.”

Decanter – Jane Anson : 89 (12.07.2018)

“Touches of charred oak are more evident because there is a lesser presence of ripe fruit alongside cloves and tar. It’s highly enjoyable, with character and soft brambly red fruit. On the nose there more leather; it has aged faster that the 2008 and 2006 vintages either side of it, but that doesn’t mean you won’t find pleasure here. One to drink now and over next decade.”
