Second Cheapest Wine

Blankiet Estate

Prince of Hearts Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2013

I initially had this rated lower trying to handicap it for being a 2013, served blind this would be hard to pick out as a second wine. Did Claud mix up the barrels? That's a joke by the way. Firing on all cylinders, restrained fruit, rich tannins and an acid balance, delivers from the bouquet on the nose to the finish. — 9 years ago

Château Léoville-Las Cases

Clos du Marquis Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2006

Scorewine
9.0

Funny enough I am not sure how many know that Clos the Marquis is a second wine, it became known on its own merit and considered a solid chateau from Saint Julien. But it is the second wine of what is considered by many as a second grand Cru that need to move up to the first league- chateau Leoville las cases.
2006 was not a great vintage, but a classy one, which start to be ready for drinking, the wine has a deep red color, a very elegant nose and a charming sexy full body. Nose is full of black current, cedar wood, plum, coffee, chocolate and some herbs, body is full round and elegant with well intigrated tannins and lovely acidity. Finish is long luxurious and inviting a second glass. My score 90, Drink 2014-2022, perhaps longer

Léoville-Las Cases was one of the first estates in Bordeaux to introduce a second label, Clos du Marquis. However, Clos du Marquis is a separate wine. Since 2007, the Chateau has offered a Second Wine known as Le Petit Lion de Marquis de Las Cases.
