extraprima Saint-Julien | Bordeaux2018 93 – 94 LE PETIT LION DU MARQUIS DE LAS CASES Saint-Julien The oldest Merlots and young Cabernets of Léoville Las Cases came into the second wine, Le Petit Lion. It consists of 42 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 45 % Merlot, and 13 % Cabernet Franc, aging in 30 % new barrels with 14.47 % alcohol. Tight and creamy, round, and full, the Le Petit Lion has a beautiful, transparent structure with good acidity and plenty of fruit. Long and with great, liqueur-like aftertaste and lots of juice, the Le Petit Lion shows what even the second wine of this exceptional terroir is capable. 37 93 – 94 GLORIA Saint-Julien Parker 92 – 94 | Suckling 93 – 94 | The Gloria 2018 consists of 60 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 32 % Merlot, 3 % Cabernet Franc and 5 % Petit Verdot and ages in 40 % new barrels. It has a dark, viscous color. Offensive, lush, crisp, and sweet, the Gloria smells with a tinted depth in a classic style. It shows a beautiful tannin presence in the mouth, with attractive aromas, is broad and opulent on the palate — Classic Gloria with meat and inner tension, good power, and core, rich, massive, and long. Currently a bit dry and dull resonating, but that is likely to soften. 93 – 94 LAGRANGE Saint-Julien Parker 93 – 95 | Suckling 93 – 94 | The Lagrange has a black color. The still somewhat closed nose shows a dark-berried, compacted fruit, plenty of sweetness, and outstanding clarity. It is dense and meaty in the mouth, with racy acidity, lots of extract-creaminess, and rich fullness. The compact tannins are still a bit rough and somewhat coarse-meshed; the long reverberation shows a subtle astringency. Everything has to find a little bit more together. 93 – 94 LANGOA-BARTON Saint-Julien Parker 92 – 94 | Suckling 93 – 94 The Langoa Barton consists of 63 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 28 % Merlot, and 9 % Cabernet Franc. It reached 13.8 % alcohol and is aged in 60 % new barrels. Massive, viscous color, purple garnet. It offers a vibrant, deep, racy nose with abundant fruit, good complexity, and depth. Taut and tightly structured in the mouth, the Langoa remains with cool aromatics and restrained, with concentrated darkberry notes and great fullness. Its fine tannins with the high energetic acidity remind of 2010. 92 – 93 LES FIEFS DE LAGRANGE Saint-Julien Parker 90 – 92 | The Les Fiefs de Lagrange is full, dense and meaty, has plenty of juice and body, and slightly rough tannins, which are caught by the generous round fruit. Deep and long, this is an excellent second wine from Lagrange, as always at the highest stage where precision and finishing is concerned. 92 – 93 LALANDE-BORIE Saint-Julien Parker 88 – 90 | Suckling 92 – 93 | The sister-Château of Ducru-Beaucaillou in 2018 was produced from 60 % Merlot and 40 % Cabernet Sauvignon with 14.5 % alcohol. Black color. An offensive nose with lots of fruit and extra sweetness. In the mouth, the Lalande-Borie shows a lot of juice, and beautiful spice, quite fresh and with concentrated dark berry notes. The slightly hard tannins provide a limited flow in the centerpiece, but the Merlot spoils with its generosity. 92 – 93 LA CROIX DE BEAUCAILOU Saint-Julien Parker 91 – 93 | La Croix de Beaucaillou is the second wine of Ducru-Beaucaillou, which consists of 35 % Merlot, 62 % Cabernet Sauvignon and 3 % Petit Verdot. As it reached a whopping 15 % alcohol and was aged in 30 % new barrels, it is round and massive, with a lot of power and thrust, while the alcohol is barely noticeable. Fresh and offensive on the palate, the La Croix de Beaucaillou has excellent tension and tinted depth. 90 – 91 LA BRIDANE Saint-Julien Suckling 89 – 90 | La Bridane presents itself massively, dark-berry-toned and modern, with rich, liqueur-like concentration, smoky and slightly over-extracted, the finish remains, unfortunately, a bit dull. 90 – 91 DU GLANA Saint-Julien Parker 87 – 89 | Suckling 92 – 93 | Du Glana consists of 60 % Cabernet Sauvignon and 40 % Merlot, aged in 40 % new barrels. The Du Glana is dark-berried, dense and liqueur-like sweet, offensive, relatively round and creamy, with lots of substance and power on the palate. This is a solid Saint-Julien with good balance and fine acidity in the middle, to the back, it gets a bit hard and reminds of some 2010s.
