Description

Created at the beginning of the 20th century (in 1902), Clos du Marquis is a wine made with the same care as the great wine of Château Léoville-Las-Cases. The grapes (with a larger share of merlot) come from a renowned terroir and are harvested by hand.

The wine is aged in French oak barrels with a wood content of about 30% for 20 months. Accessible younger than the wine of Château Léoville Las Cases, it seduces by its supple, suave and persistent matter.

Wine Advocate : “The 2023 Clos du Marquis is a rather serious, structured wine, evocative of cherries, dark berries and kirsch, framed by a touch of creamy new oak. Medium to full-bodied and fleshy but structured, it’s a taut, concentrated wine that will reward some patience.”
