在波爾多左岸的St-Julien村有三家名字冠有Léoville的酒莊，因為它們在17到18世紀一度是隸屬於同一個地主的莊園，後來隨著繼承的分割而逐漸形成三家酒莊；在1855年的頂級酒莊分級中被列為二級酒莊。其中Léoville-Poyferré是由於19世紀中期的莊主Jean-Marie de Poyferré男爵而得名。
酒莊旗下的葡萄園從20世紀初的48公頃逐漸擴充到目前的80公頃，園中的土壤是典型的礫石土。早期原本種了過半的Merlot，在Didier的管理下也逐步調整到現在的65% Cabernet Sauvignon (35公頃)，其他是25% Merlot (17公頃)、8% Petit Verdot和2% Cabernet Franc(兩者共11公頃)。現在它的酒質被認為年輕就頗為豐富怡人，但是仍是很能代表St-Julien風土特色的好酒，近年來人氣相當高。
近年來Léoville Poyferré的酒質被認為年輕就相當豐富怡人，並且是三家Léoville酒莊之中最誘人、可親近而且最有魅力的。不過Poyferré仍是很能代表St-Julien風土特色的好酒，近年來人氣和評價都非常高。

A blend of 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc, aged in 80% new oak barriques, the 2018 Léoville Poyferré comes bounding out of the glass with exuberant scents of Morello cherries, plum preserves and blackberry pie, giving way to nuances of cedar chest, unsmoked cigars, vanilla pod and sassafras, plus a waft of crushed rocks. The palate is full-bodied, rich and decadent, delivering hedonic black fruits and lots of spicy accents with a velvety texture and seamless freshness, finishing long and satisfyingly savory. This is a very impressive showing that is delicious out of the gate but has the backbone to give a good 30 years or more of pleasure.
Jeb Dunnuck : 100
“Every bit as good as the 2009, and I think better than the 2010 and 2016, the 2018 Château Léoville Poyferré is a total thrill that tops out my scale. Its dense purple hue is followed by an incredible, full-bodied monster of a wine that, despite massive amounts of fruit, tannins, and extract, still stays weightless and ethereal, with incredible purity. Loaded with notions of crème de cassis, spring flowers, tobacco, violets, charcoal, and cedar pencil, it’s extraordinarily concentrated, flawlessly balanced, and has a finish that won’t quit. This is a legendary wine in the making. Give bottles 7-8 years, a decade would be even better, and it will keep for 40-50 years. Hats off to the Cuvelier family for another extraordinary wine!”
