2022 Le Petit Lion du Marquis de Las Cases, Saint-Julien 6x75cl

Chateau Leoville de Las Cases

Case Format: 75cl

Max score: 91

Drink To: 2026-2040

Starting out as the “second wine” of Leoville-Las-Cases, Clos du Marquis soon became a standalone wine in its own right. Its 45-hectare vineyard is surrounded by some of the most prestigious classified growths in Saint-Julien and therefore benefits from a similar terroir of humic podzol over sandy-clay gravel. When tasting, the Le Clos du Marquis shows itself to be typically Saint-Julien. Excellent structure, complexity and harmony exemplify this.

Neal Martin

The 2022 Le Petit Lion now includes the best parcels of the second wine of Clos du Marquis. Dark berry fruit, black olive compote and a light estuarine scent on the nose. It is quite powerful and well-defined, one can admire the focus. The palate is medium-bodied with rather chalky tannins on the entry. Firm in structure and saline, there is just a touch of abruptness on the chewy finish that should fill out during its barrel maturation.
