Château Léoville Poyferré

Château Léoville Poyferré, Second Grand Cru Classé of Saint-Julien since 1855, combines power, elegance, and consistency. The estate spans 80 hectares of deep gravel, primarily planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc. Owned by the Cuvelier family since 1920, it benefits from a modern approach while respecting Médoc traditions. Its wines, rich, harmonious, and intensely aromatic, offer excellent aging potential. Léoville Poyferré stands out as one of the major references of the left bank of Bordeaux.
