"It's impossible to fault Léoville Las Cases for 30 years. With superb depth, the quality reaches, or even exceeds, that of the first growths classified for a quarter of the price. For us, it is the best of the second growths." (Revue des Vins de France, December 2011). The first of the second growths!
