Clos du Marquis

Clos du Marquis 2018

Clos du Marquis

Case Format: 6x75cl

Max score: 96.0

Starting out as the “second wine” of Leoville-Las-Cases, Clos du Marquis soon became a standalone wine in its own right. Its 45-hectare vineyard is surrounded by some of the most prestigious classified growths in Saint-Julien and therefore benefits from a similar terroir of humic podzol over sandy-clay gravel. When tasting, the Le Clos du Marquis shows itself to be typically Saint-Julien. Excellent structure, complexity and harmony exemplify this.

Julia Harding MW

Deep purple core and bright purple rim. Deep, dark and charry. Combination of ripe and intense cassis and a rocky, more savoury quality to add complexity, yet its scented too. Tannins are incredibly fine, many layered, dry and yet supple. And great freshness. A very good second wine. (JH)

The 2018 Clos du Marquis is composed of 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 6% Cabernet Franc, with 13% press wine added back to the blend. The wine has 14.5% alcohol and was aged in 55% new barriques. Deep garnet-purple colored, it strolls confidently out of the glass with notes of warm cassis, ripe black plums and boysenberries and hints of underbrush, cedar chest, graphite and black olives plus a touch of baking spices. The medium to full-bodied palate is jam-packed with juicy blackberry layers, supported by firm, grainy tannins and bags of freshness, finishing long with an invigorating burst.
