Clos du Marquis 2007, here is a beautiful bottle. The dress is red, deep, the bouquet is a mixture of black fruits and licorice. On the palate, it's pure happiness, the wine is supple, round, superbly structured. The perfect balance between power and flexibility. It's really a bottle to have, even a flagship box in your cellar.

The advice of 12bouteilles: Open 1 hour before and served on a duck or a foie gras. It deserves a place of choice on your table at Christmas.

Considered wrongly as the 2nd wine of Château Léoville Las Cases, it is in fact the other first wine of the property, it receives in fact all the necessary care for a wine of its range. In Saint Julien, non-crusaders are rare, Clos du Marquis is one of them, yet it overshadows a good number of Crus Classés of the appellation. A wine in the image of its label, simple, elegant, full of finesse.
