Reviewer: Stephen Tanzer

(a blend of 70% cabernet sauvignon, 17% merlot and 13% cabernet franc; 13.27% alcohol, 3.82 pH and 3.29 acidity) Medium ruby. Complex aromas of kirsch, black raspberry, minerals, graphite and curry powder, with a suggestion of crushed berries. Hugely dense, rich and full. Compellingly sweet but brooding and tight, currently dominated by its powerful structure. The IPT here is 74, or about the same as the last two vintages. Powerful, mounting aftertaste suggests that this massive Las Cases will be very long-lived.
