2010 Clos du Marquis, St Julien, Bordeaux the-mâconnais but it is so compelling

but it is so compelling tonight

This year is no exception

Château Chasse-Spleen really comes into its own

smoky and toasted nuts

and the darker black fruit tones that you might expect are less prominent in the Asili

2010 Clos du Marquis, St Julien, Bordeaux the-mâconnais but it is so compellingAbsolutely fantastic! Rich, opulent and creamy textured with the spectacular Loville Las Cases signature deftly etched across it from nose to finish, packed full of perfect dominating red fruit and a stunning finish. Usually Las Cases blows this out of the water, but not so in 2010 its the best any of us can recall: a must have. (75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc) Simon Staples, Fine Wine Director
