Clos du Marquis 2009 is a Left Bank Bordeaux from the Saint-Julien appellation. This wine is crafted from a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc. Its bouquet features aromas of dark berries, leather and subtle oak. The palate reveals layers of blackcurrant and plum, supported by firm tannins and a balanced acidity. Clos du Marquis is produced by Château Léoville Las Cases, a historic Second Growth estate known for its distinctive gravel-based terroir within the walled Grand Clos vineyard. The 2009 vintage shows excellent ageing potential.

The 2009 Clos du Marquis is tightly wound on the nose, gradually unfurling to reveal blackberry pastilles, boysenberry, pencil shaving and subtle mint aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, good weight in the mouth, and crisp acidity. Fresh and vibrant with a gentle grip on the finish that perhaps would benefit from more persistence. Otherwise this is very fine. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners’ 2009 Bordeaux tasting. Neal Martin1st March 2019
