Winemaker Notes
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.
Professional Ratings
91 James Suckling
Black currants, cocoa nibs, dried herbs and graphite on the nose, with some peppercorns. It’s firm and focused, savory, with a medium body and sleek, firm tannins. Nicely polished. 53% cabernet sauvignon, 40% merlot, 6% petit verdot and 1% cabernet franc. Drink or hold.
91 Jeb Dunnuck
A rocking, upfront, textured, medium-bodied effort, the 2021 Château Lilian Ladouys offers lots of both red and black fruits, some spicy, herbal notes, fine tannins, and outstanding length. Based on 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, and the rest Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc, it's a pleasure-bent, balanced, impeccably made Saint-Estèphe that will evolve for 10-15 years.
91 Vinous
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. –Antonio Galloni
91 Wine Spectator
Round and almost fleshy, this has a nice filling texture with sweet, sour and sharp fruit - lovely bright and fresh raspberries and strawberries with tangy blueberries and cooling mint and wet stones giving minerality. Still quite a lean wine, streamlined and finessed, not layered or weighty but well presented and easy to enjoy. This will also age as it still feels a little young and tight.
