The Chinese market is very familiar with the vintage of 2011 and 2013, they are pretty successful because of the reasonable price. Meanwhile, some professionals estimate these two vintages are not capable of long-time ageing. Is it true?

With this question, I went to Château Léoville Las Cases and tasted nine wines from Domaines Delon’s four different wineries in Bordeaux.  

I believe the tasting notes beneath will help you better understand 2011 and 2013 in Bordeaux. 

Cheers.
