Product Highlights
With a proportion of merlot identical to the 2009 and 2010 vintages, Château Lilian Ladouys 2021 is characterized by elegant notes of fresh fruit, a rich, charming and captivating nose revealing spice-filled aromas of incense and bitter cocoa. The ample and velvety mouth presents a well-bound, fine and structured frame, supported by cabernet sauvignon.

Expert Reviews
"The 2021 Lilian Ladouys turned out well. Medium in body, with pretty, forward fruit, the 2021 is very nicely balanced. Succulent dark plum, spice, new leather, menthol and dried herbs build into the silky finish."

"This shows aromas of light plums and redcurrants with white pepper and cloves. Medium body, firm and fine tannins with a racy and fresh finish. 53% cabernet sauvignon, 40% merlot, 6% petit verdot and 1% cabernet franc. Pleasant now but has aging potential. Drink or hold."
