"Lilian Ladouys has a very pretty nose with dominant notes of ripe blackberries mingling with vanilla woodiness. The palate is pretty and pure, with supple black fruits and a very complex, concentrated finish. This is truly a delicious Saint-Estèphe from a revived estate, very well made." E-ROBERT PARKER, NEAL MARTIN - April 2012
Un long élevage en fût qui lui apporte des belles notes secondaires d'amandes grillées et de vanille.
Tasting notes

Dense, dark garnet color, drawing on purple in its youth.
Aroma
The bouquet reveals notes of cassis, violet, mocha, vanilla, spices and licorice.
Wine Empyreumatic | Fruity | Roasted | Smoked
Taste
The wines of Saint-Estèphe have strong tannins and thus reach their maturity more slowly than most other medals. They offer black fruits, a note of freshness, often a woody or smoky aspect and a floral touch.

Never disappointed with Lilian Ladouys, 2016 vintage with a wine completely on the fruit, lots of roundness, not very pronounced tannins, a smooth wine like all the vintages of this château.

One bottle's a goner, the other two quite nice, but this vintage, as expected, is at the end of its life. Nevertheless, it perfectly matches what we expect from a St Estèphe on the palate, for what remains of long-lasting aroma. So, to be discovered.

A pure marvel of a wine, what an aroma, a wonderful discovery, it goes well with good Corsican charcuterie and a good Saint-Marcellin.

Very easy to digest, seductive. Fragrances of red fruit but the hint of acidity is not aggressive. Very well-balanced!

A little less refined than the 2013, but a real treat, enjoyed with lamb confit with a cep sauce.
