Chateau Leoville Poyferre, Saint-Julien, France 2020 Bodega Teho melted licorice and cocoa notesDeep purple black colored, the Loville Poyferr comes bounding out of the glass like an energetic young pup, delivering exuberant scents of crushed black cherries, juicy blackberries and warm cassis, with hints of ground cloves, dark chocolate, lilacs and tilled soil. The medium to full bodied palate is wonderfully plush, delivering bags of ripe black fruits with a seamless backbone of acidity, finishing long and spicy.
