Clos du Marquis
In Saint‑Julien on Bordeaux’s Left Bank, Clos du Marquis has worn its own name since 1902—borrowed from the ‘Petit Clos’ beside the Marquis de Las Cases residence. Often mistaken for a second wine, it is intentionally a distinct cuvée, drawn from selected parcels of the appellation beyond the celebrated Grand Clos.
Within Domaines Delon, decisions are made plot by plot: gravelly rises for Cabernet backbone, more clay‑tinged sections for depth and suppleness. Hand picking, severe sorting, precise vinification and controlled oak ageing build a profile that values proportion over volume.
Clos du Marquis reads Saint‑Julien as discipline—layered, linear and etched with fine tannin architecture. For lovers of classical Bordeaux craft, it offers not a shadow but a second viewpoint, speaking with its own cadence and staying power.Clos du Marquis
