with some 80 hectares under vine, léoville poyferré's parcels are inter-fingered with those belonging to the delon and barton families by the river and on the plateau of saint-julien. the soils are cultivated less frequently and less deeply these days, and conversion to organic methods is gradually being rolled out, parcel by parcel, some being easier to farm this way than others. winemaking features a five- to eight-day cold soak, followed by comparatively long macerations, and maturation is in 80% new oak, with lots destined for new barrels completing their malolactic fermentation in barrel. combined with an elevated percentage of merlot in the vineyards (though the tendency here, as elsewhere, is to replant with more cabernet sauvignon), this delivers the richest, fleshiest, most flamboyant of the three léoville estates, but while it's generally the most open out of the gates of the three, that hasn't come at the expense of longevity. the cuvliers and their team have turned in a fine performance in 2021, harvesting young vines interplanted in older parcels first, then their merlots, and finally, daring to wait, their cabernets. some saignées were performed on merlot lots where berries were large and rich in juice. along with leoville las cases and a few others, this is among the stars of the appellation. made in a more floral, supple, margaux-like style, the deep ruby/purple-hued 2004 leoville poyferre exhibits sweet, broad flavors, and plenty of tannin lurking beneath the surface. however, the abundant cherry, black currant, licorice, and smoke notes obscure the tannic clout. this rich, powerful, broad beauty should be drinkable in 2-3 years, and last for two decades.
