James Suckling
A very attractive red with blackcurrant and orange-peel aromas and flavors. Medium body, fine tannins and a juicy finish. Polished texture. Second wine of Clos du Marquis. Drink after 2022.
VertdeVin
The nose is fresh, precise and offers a beautiful ripe/juicy fruit. It reveals notes of cassis, black cherry and crushed blackberry associated with a hint of crushed redcurrant, liquorice, an imperceptible hint of eucalyptus as well as fine touches of dark chocolate and spices. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, juicy, full and offers freshness. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy black cherry, juicy raspberry and more slightly strawberry associated with touches of blackberry, fine hints of toasted/caramelized oak, very fine touches of gravelly/ioded minerality as well as subtle hints of sweet spices and an imperceptible touch of milky caramel. Tannins are fine and very slightly tight/firm. Good length.
Wine Enthusiast
Solid tannins come from the vineyard, giving this dense, concentrated wine with a powerful structure and blackberry fruits. The wine's future is assured, with richness, spice and fruitiness all coming together. Drink from 2023.
Robert Parker Wine Advocate
Since 2007, the Clos du Marquis comes from an entirely different vineyard in Saint-Julien than the Leoville Las Cases, so it is not a second wine. And there was only a small amount of frost on the western edge of this vineyard in 2017. A blend of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot and 1% Cabernet Franc, the 2017 Clos du Marquis is medium to deep garnet-purple in color and struts confidently out of the glass with vibrant notes of crushed blackcurrants, warm blackberries and fresh black and red plums with touches of cigar box and bouquet garni. Medium-bodied, the palate is chock-full of zingy black fruits, framed by firm, grainy tannins and bold freshness, finishing long with a skip in its step.
