Created in 1902, the Clos du Marquis is an historical Médoc brand. It has its origins in the “Petit Clos” adjacent to the Chateau de Leoville, home of the Marquis de Las Cases. The Clos du Marquis comes from the best terroirs of Saint-Julien that were not part of the former Leoville estate. These terroirs, physically separated from those of Las Cases, are located further west and surrounded by many prestigious Second Classified Growths. The Clos du Marquis thus displays typical great Saint-Julien characteristics: structure, complexity, balance, harmony, distinction and great ageing potential. Château Leoville Las Cases therefore comprises two properties with distinct terroir characteristics, producing two “Premiers Vins” with very different tastes, despite an obvious affiliation.

The 2022 Clos du Marquis is lovely, unwinding in the glass with notes of inky berries and cherries mingled with attractive floral nuances of rose petals and violets. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and suave, it’s layered and concentrated, with a dense and lively core of fruit, beautiful purity and a long, penetrating finish.
