The Lilian Ladouys is a blend of Merlot 59%, Cabernet sauvignon 37%, Petit verdot 3%, Cabernet franc 1%. The 2020 Lilian Ladouys offers aromas of cassis, licorice and a deft touch of creamy new oak, followed by a medium to full-bodied, quite rich and broad palate framed by powdery tannins that assert themselves in the finish. It's a bit more structured than the demonstrative 2019 and requires some patience. The price / quality of this Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel is more than excellent.
