Founded in 1902, Clos du Marquis is a wine that originates from Petit Clos, the former home of the Marquis de Las Cases. Adjoining that of Chateau Leoville Las Cases, the Clos du Marquis vineyard is located on the great terroir of the Saint-Julien appellation on the left bank of the Bordeaux region. A strong brand of the Domaines Delon, Clos du Marquis has a unique identity, different from that of Leoville Las Cases.
The wines of Clos de Marquis are among the greatest red wines of Saint-Julien. Below are some awesome EMAIL ONLY SPECIALS. The wines are in stock right now, and requests will be fulfilled in the order they’re received.
A pretty wine and a classic Bordeaux, this 2008 has attractive notes of minerals intermixed with fruitcake and sweet currant fruit. Medium-bodied and pure, with a dense ruby/purple color. It’s perfectly mature and is drinking beautifully now! A blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 41% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot.
Structured, firm and intense, Clos du Marquis 2021 has an assertive identity that owes much to the elegance and power of the Cabernet grapes, which perform well in this vintage. This wine shows complexity, a noble structure and an aerial, inviting elegance that stretches out for a long time on the finish.
I loved the 2022 Clos Du Marquis, which is a brilliant effort, if not the finest vintage of this cuvée I’ve tasted. Cassis, graphite, and floral notes all define the bouquet, and it’s full-bodied, with ultra-fine tannins and flawless balance. It shows the ripe, concentrated, powerful style of the vintage yet is incredibly pure and seamless, with everything in the right places. It’s going to round into form with just a few years of bottle age but have decades of prime drinking.
