Clos du Marquis 2017
Saint-Julien - Clos du Marquis du Château Léoville Las Cases
94/100 James Suckling & 93/100 Parker
Cellaring : 2022 - 2045
By Lisa Perrotti-Brown 2020: "Since 2007, Clos du Marquis has come from an entirely different St. Julien vineyard than the Léoville Las Cases, so it is not a second wine. And there was only a small amount of frost on the western edge of this vineyard in 2017. A blend of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot and 1% Cabernet Franc, the 2017 Clos du Marquis is medium to deep garnet-purple in color and struts confidently out of the glass with vibrant notes of crushed black currants, warm blackberries and fresh black and red plums with hints of cigar box and bouquet garni. Medium-bodied, the palate is packed with zesty black fruits, framed by firm, grainy tannins and bold freshness, and finishes long and vibrant."
