    Clos du Marquis 2016 is the second wine of Château Léoville-Las Cases in Saint-Julien and bears the signature of one of Bordeaux's most prestigious estates. The 2016 vintage is cool, precise, and elegant, with clear fruit and fine tannins that open up gradually. The estate's distinctive feature lies in the careful selection of parcels within the terroir and a aging process that shades the structure without masking the finesse. Thus, Clos du Marquis combines the potential of the Grand Vin with an approachable, early-evolving elegance – ideal for lovers of the Saint-Julien terroir who seek substance but don't want to wait a decade for it to reach its full potential.

    On the palate, the wine reveals deep notes of cassis and black cherry, accompanied by graphite nuances, cedarwood, and a hint of tobacco. It is concentrated, with fine-grained tannins, a medium to full body, and a fresh mineral note that carries the long finish. The balance of freshness, structure, and elegance reflects the artistry of Bordeaux winemakers and confirms the quality of the 2016 vintage, which critics praise as a solid example of the Saint-Julien appellation's class.

    The optimal drinking window is expected to begin around 2026 and extend into the 2030s, with the wine gaining depth and complexity over time. Those enjoying it now will already experience a harmonious, structured balance that will continue to develop. Food pairing recommendation: A perfectly roasted rack of lamb, game dishes with mushrooms, or a selection of mature cheeses perfectly complement the elegant character of this Clos du Marquis.

    LIFE BEFORE...

    Where possible, and especially with larger wine cellar purchases, the wine cellars of the previous owners tell us a lot about the storage conditions of the wines. A professionally managed wine cellar usually guarantees perfect storage conditions for the wines. We acquire our wines exclusively from reputable, mostly private wine collectors.

    HIDDEN FEATURES

    Many high-quality wines today feature various security features for authentication, such as markings that only become visible under UV light. We check and compare all purchased wines for these features using an extensive database, and if there is even the slightest doubt, we reject the wine.

    THE DETAILS MATTER

    We examine wine labels under a microscope to determine their quality, and we check the printed image for any peculiarities that are typical for a particular winery, wine, or vintage. We draw on a large image database to identify any anomalies.

    COLOR MAKES THE DIFFERENCE

    Last but not least, we also examine the wine's composition. Color, turbidity, sediment, and the bubbles in a champagne reveal a lot about the wine's or champagne's condition and potential drinking pleasure.
