CLOS DU MARQUIS 2000SAINT JULIEN

WINE SPECTATOR 94 POINTS: “The nose shows loads of plum, spice and meat aromas, as well as hints of licorice. It’s full-bodied, with firm, yet velvety textured tannins. It’s big and rounded. If you can’t afford Las Cases, try some of this. Some might call this a second wine, but it comes from a plot of vineyards not deemed worthy of Léoville Las Cases. So it’s like its own estate. *Ranked 14 Top 100 Wine of 2003, Smart Buys*”
