Clos du Marquis 2017
Bordeaux - Saint-Julien - Red Wine -Château Clos du Marquis 2017
Appellation : Saint Julien
Classification :
Originally owned by the Marquis de Las Cases, Clos du Marquis was for a long time the second wine of Château Léoville Las Cases.
Today, Clos du Marquis is a full-fledged Saint-Julien cru.
Owned by the Delon family, also owners of Château Léoville Las Cases, Potensac in the Médoc and Nénin in Pomerol, Clos du Marquis is next to the Château de Léoville Las Cases.
The 2017 vintage is composed of Cabernets Sauvignon (72%), blended with Merlots (27%) and Cabernets Franc (1%), to form a cru of great precision.
The aging was done in barrels, 55% new.
Tasting note fom Wine Advocate (Robert Parker) : 93/100
Since 2007, the Clos du Marquis comes from an entirely different vineyard in Saint-Julien than the Leoville 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 blackcurrants, warm blackberries and fresh black and red plums with touches of cigar box and bouquet garni. Medium-bodied, the palate is chock-full of zingy black fruits, framed by firm, grainy tannins and bold freshness, finishing long with a skip in its step
