Note di degustazione
The 20120 Le Petit Lion du Marquis de Las Cases is floral, lifted and also understated. Crushed flowers, sweet tobacco, smoke, game, worn-in leather and rose petal are all laced into the soft, inviting finish. Dark red cherry, pomegranate, spice and mint add the final shades of nuance. The 2012 is a bit lacking in depth, but is also pretty for what it is. In 2012 the blend is 48% Cabernet Sauvignon, 44% Merlot and 8% Cabernet Franc.

The second wine of Leoville Las Cases, the 2012 Le Petit Lion, has a dense ruby/purple color, loads of tannin, undeniable minerality, blackcurrants and earth. It is medium-bodied, firm and austere, but should age for 10-15 more years and soften somewhat.
Glossy dark crimson. Juicy – the acceptable face of young Las Cases? But still quite harsh on the end. Not quite enough in the middle. Where's the fruit? (JR)
