Retailer product description

Reproduced from a tracked retailer’s product feed for identification; it is not BottlePicker editorial content.

The 2005 Léoville Poyferré has quite a perfumed and minty bouquet, a common trait across many of the Left Bank '05s. Firm tannins frame plenty of tarry black fruit on the boldly styled palate. The 2005 is fresh but a little more tannic than the wines made nowadays. Dense and a little sinewy on the finish, this will certainly require decanting if broached now.
