Clos Du Marquis 2014 (1x75cl)

Clos du Marquis comes from Saint-Julien and is usually built around Cabernet Sauvignon, in a style that favours elegance over power. The 2014 is a Cabernet-led blend (74% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc) with fresh, focused fruit and a graphite line that will age well.

A good match for roast lamb or a steak dinner, or a thoughtful gift for a Bordeaux drinker who wants a classic Left Bank with years ahead of it.

Tasting notes

Wine Advocate (92 points) noted blackberry, raspberry coulis, incense and iris, medium-bodied with a gentle grip and graphite-infused red and black fruit. Wine Enthusiast rated it 94 points: dense dark fruit, firm and powerful, a fine wine for long-term ageing.
