Description
A Precise and Balanced Second Wine from Saint-Julien
The estate
With wines that achieve the feat of reaching heights of excellence and elegance vintage after vintage, the Château Léoville Las Cases is now among the most emblematic estates of the prestigious Saint-Julien appellation located on the left bank of the Bordeaux region.
The vineyard
Le Petit Lion du Marquis de Las Cases is a Saint-Julien wine from a vineyard planted within the famous Clos de Léoville, whose complexity constitutes a real mosaic of terroirs. Located near the Gironde, the vineyard benefits from the river's role as a thermal regulator, ensuring mild temperatures and providing a barrier against frost. Combined with the presence of gravel soils from the Günz resting on subsoils of gravelly-sandy nature with more or less deep clays, the terroir of Château Léoville Las Cases brings together all the conditions to produce wines of legendary stature.
The wine
Le Petit Lion du Marquis de Las Cases was born in 2007. As the Second Wine of Château Léoville Las Cases, Le Petit Lion du Marquis de Las Cases is made from vineyard plots located in the Clos Léoville Las Cases. Following in the footsteps of its two elders, Le Petit Lion du Marquis de Las Cases is vinified and aged with the same care as the other wines of the estate.
Blend
Le Petit Lion du Marquis de Las Cases 2023 is made from a blend of cabernet sauvignon (61%), merlot (31%), and cabernet franc (8%).
