Château Lilian Ladouys, St Estephe, FR, 2021 (MAGNUM)

⭐ Vintage overview (2021 Saint-Estèphe)

The 2021 vintage in Bordeaux was generally cooler and more challenging than 2018–2020, producing wines with fresh acidity, moderate ripeness, and classic structure. In Saint-Estèphe, this tends to translate into wines that are more linear and tannic, but balanced and food-friendly rather than opulent.

Château Lilian Ladouys is considered one of the more consistent Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel estates in this appellation.
