Described as "excellent" by Wine Spectator, Clos du Marquis is the second wine of famed Château Léoville-Las Cases. The Delon family has run the winery now for five generations ... with patriarch Michel at the helm of Clos de Marquis' production.

Assisted by his son Jean-Hubert and renowned oenologist Michel Rolland, Michel is responsible for producing one of the best second wines in Bordeaux - creating quite a flurry of excitement in the press.

Wine Spectator gave the 2004 vintage an impressive 91 points - " aromas of raspberry and citrus, with just a hint of sweet tobacco. Full-bodied, with a solid core of fruit and a caressing, layered tannin structure. Very well made."
