Over the generations, the de Las Cases family has continued to develop and refine the Clos du Marquis vineyard. Today, Château is owned by the Delon family, who also own Château Léoville-Las Cases.

Description Clos du Marquis 2023.

SITE

Le Petit Clos, a 4.5-hectare protected historic vineyard, was once the private garden of the 1st Marquis de Las Cases. It is adjacent to Château, just outside the village of Saint- Julien. The remaining 40.5 hectares stretch across the appellation's famous plateau to the west of Pauillac, bordering Pichon Baron.

SOILS

Le Petit Clos is reminiscent of the heart of Grand Enclos de Las Cases, with large pebbles scattered over a vein of clay. The plateau, formerly wooded, offers soil rich in organic matter on a foundation of clayey gravel.

Harvest period September 6 to October 5, 2023
