Clos du Marquis--Vintage 1996
Saint-Julien. The second wine of Ch. Léoville-Las-Cases
Tasting Note: A terrific Clos du Marquis, and clearly of second or third-growth quality, this dark purple-coloured wine reveals structure, brooding backwardness, and rich, expansive character. The wine exhibits plenty of sweet kirsch blackcurrant fruit intermixed with high quality, subtle new oak, and steely, mineral characteristics. Rich and medium to full-bodied, with ripe tannin, this is a dazzling Clos du Marquis. Anticipated maturity: 2002-2018. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 122, April 1999.
