Deep ruby in colour with a vibrant core of blackberry and cassis fruit, the 2006 is finely balanced with rounded fruit and sweet oak supported by well-managed tannins and lifted by focused acidity.

This second growth is one of the most recognised names in Saint-Julien, crafting wines known for their suppleness and finesse. The Cuvelier family has owned Château Léoville Poyferré since the 1920s. In 1979, Didier Cuvelier became the first of his family to manage the estate and set about making numerous improvements. He initiated a 19-year replanting programme to increase plantings of Cabernet Sauvignon within the appellation, as well as bringing in consultant Michel Rolland in 1994 to modernise the cellar. As a result, Didier is widely credited with driving a marked quality improvement that sees Château Léoville Poyferré regularly featured among the top wines of Saint-Julien every vintage.
