Heiner Lobenberg om:
Clos du Marquis 2009

95
/100

Sort med en rød kant. Duftende næse af kaffe og chokolade. Masser af cassis, sorte kirsebær, frisk blomme, lidt mirabelleblomme, lette blomsternoter, rosenblade. Fyldige, smørbløde tanniner i smagen, brombær, sorte kirsebær, cassis, et strejf af bitterhed, kakao, tobak, meget hurtig, god friskhed. Atypisk for vinen har den en klar tendens til sort frugt, næsten tæt og tyk og ganske rund og frodig, minder om Langoa Barton, er allerede og nok altid meget velsmagende, nok race til et langt liv, meget aromatisk og charmerende, lang finish.

Suckling om: Clos du Marquis

Rich yet firmly structured this is a very classic St.-Julien that's generous and polished with so much energy driving the long plush finish. Delicious now, but should hold for many years. (Horizontal Tasting, London, 2019)

Parker om: Clos du Marquis

Tasted at Chateau Leoville Las-Cases. The Clos du Marquis 2009 has a wonderful vibrant, floral bouquet packed full of crushed violets, a touch of cassis, blueberry and blackberry jam all with fine definition. Opulent and ravishing. The palate has a silky smooth entry, very fine velvety tannins that belie that tannic backbone underneath. This is a serious Saint Julien with great persistency on the finish. Superb.

Jeb Dunnuck om: Clos du Marquis

A beautiful, young, and still burly 2009, the Clos du Marquis comes from a single vineyard in the Léoville Las Cases stable (it's not a second wine) and is 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, and the balance Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. It's a beautiful wine offering classic Saint-Julien crème de cassis fruits as well as lots of rocky minerality, cedarwood, graphite, and spring flowers. With full-bodied richness, a seamless, layered mouthfeel, stunning purity of fruit, and a great finish, it needs a solid decant if drinking today and has another two decades or more of prime drinking.

Wine Enthusiast om: Clos du Marquis

A dense wine, the wood just showing at this stage through its dark tannins and superb rich fruit. The wine is ripe, with a density of tannins that go right down deep. Big and powerful.

Leoville Las Cases

Delons har ejet denne 2ème Crus siden anden halvdel af det 19. århundrede, og deres vin har været en af de absolut bedste i Bordeaux siden i hvert fald anden halvdel af sidste århundrede.
