The Clos du Marquis 2014 is a blend of 74% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot and 4% Cabernet Franc cropped at 33 hectoliter per hectare and matured in 50% new wood. Picked between 30 September and 13 October, it has a ripe, quite opulent bouquet with layers of blackberry, dark plum and incense, a touch of pencil lead with time. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, a little pinched at the moment but it will “relax”. The alcohol level is one of the highest ever at 13.85% and yet it it counterbalanced by its freshness. In fact, the finish is quite classic in style and provides a pleasant juxtaposition with the more generous aromatics – it will be interesting to see how they develop during their élevage.

Dunkles Granat, recht satt in der Mitte, rubiner Rand. Sehr rotbeeriges Bouquet, die Beeren wirken wie just gepflückt, dahinter Rosenpfeffer und fein florale Züge, zeigt sich ziemlich engmaschig im Nasenansatz. Stoffiger Gaumen, rotes Cassis und angenehmer Nachklang. Weiss spontan zu gefallen und dürfte bald und auch relativ lange Freude bereiten. 17/20 2020 – 2036

Pure and vibrant, with a lovely stream of plum, cassis and blackberry confiture notes, laced with licorice snap and violet hints. A sleek graphite detail harnesses the finish. Wins on purity in the end. Best from 2019 through 2028. 10,000 cases made.
