Pierre Lurton and the team at Château Marjosse place aromatic purity and the expression of fruit at the heart of their winemaking. The team eschews the use of new oak, instead preferring used 400 litre barrels that allow the aromatic, floral, cherry-fruited nature of the wine to take centre stage. In 2023, the quality of the Cabernets was excellent and forms a higher part of the blend (40%) than in previous vintages. This is always friendly, delicious, and one of Bordeaux’s great values.
The 2023 Marjosse is a huge overachiever in this vintage. Dark, rich and explosive, the 2023 packs a serious punch. Succulent black cherry, plum, licorice and chocolate linger. Best of all, the 2023 should be a screaming value.
A delightful Bordeaux showcasing smooth, well-integrated tannins. Notes of dark berries and hints of citrus peel are complemented by subtle floral undertones. It's approachable and already quite delicious. Beautiful, inviting fruit character.
