Ripe redcurrant and cranberry scents on the nose, the oak nicely integrated with floral, almost Burgundian scents emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, quite saline in the mouth with good structure on the finish.
Established in the 18th century and family owned for generations, Chateau Lillian Ladouys was bought in recent years by a private investor who has invested heavily in both the vineyards and the winery. The modernisation has hugely benefitted the resulting wines and Lillian Ladouys is certainly one to watch – if the 2003 and 2005 vintages are anything to go by! Hearty, concentrated, and with fine tannin structure, the new wave of wines coming from this Chateau are fantastic examples of Saint-Estèphe claret.
The estate covers an area of 47 hectares spread in a slightly disparate fashion across the St Estèphe appellation, within sight of some prestigious neighbors such as Cos d’Estournel.
