Clos du Marquis 2020 is a Left Bank Bordeaux red wine from the highly regarded St-Julien property of Clos du Marquis. Neither a Cru Classé nor a Cru Bourgeois estate, Clos du Marquis nevertheless produces some of the most sought-after wines in the Médoc. Clos de Marquis is often erroneously assumed to be the second wine of Château Léoville Lascases, however it is a Grand Vin in its own right - and one with a considerable fan base. "The 2020 Clos du Marquis wafts from the glass with aromas of rich berries, cherries, orange zest, pencil shavings and crushed mint. Medium to full-bodied, rich and velvety, with a sweet core of fruit, lively acids and powdery tannins that assert themselves on the youthfully firm finish, it`s a serious wine that will require and reward patience. 2027 - 2050

The 2020 Clos du Marquis is a rich, explosive wine. Super-ripe dark cherry, red plum, dark spice and pomegranate give the 2020 its effusive, open-knit personality. There's terrific energy and tons of class here. The purity of the fruit is very fine, yet the tannins are a bit imposing at this stage. Give this a few years to come together.Antonio Galloni23rd February 2023

The 2020 Clos du Marquis is composed of 61% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot, and 6% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple in color, it skips out of the glass with vivacious notes of kirsch, black raspberries, and cassis, leading to suggestions of lavender, crushed rocks, and fragrant soil. The medium-bodied palate is energetic and refreshing, with grainy tannins and a good intensity of red and black berry layers on the finish.Lisa Perrotti-Brown12th March 2023
