Clos Du Marquis 2000 Saint-Julien 12 x 75cl / 13%

This lot contains twelve bottles of 2000 Clos Du Marquis from Bordeaux's Saint-Julien appellation.

'The nose shows loads of plum, spice and meat aromas, as well as hints of licorice. It's full-bodied, with firm, yet velvety textured tannins. It's big and rounded. If you can't afford Las Cases, try some of this. Some might call this a second wine, but it comes from a plot of vineyards not deemed worthy of Léoville Las Cases. So it's like its own estate. Best after 2009. 20,000 cases made. 94/100 James Suckling, Wine Spectator 2003'

This lot comes from the temperature-controlled cellar of media businessman and wine enthusiast Lord Evgeny Lebedev, where they have been kept since purchase direct from UK importers.
