Tannin plein de charme et de sensualité. La finale porte bien en bouche et c’est déjà très bon. En bref, un marjosse fidèle à ses convictions.

I was thrilled to be able to taste the 2023 Château Marjosse, which I don't often get to taste. Coming from the home estate of Pierre Lurton (now retired from Cheval Blanc), it has a beautiful nose of pure red and black fruits as well as spicy wood, tobacco, and a touch of flowers. Balanced, medium-bodied, and elegant, this beautiful 2023 will evolve for at least a decade.

Fruity, forward, soft, round, and already delicious, the wine offers a lot of bang for the buck, as it is an easy pleasure to drink, and it sells for a song. Drink from 2026-2034. 89-91 Pts.

Pierre Lurton's home estate, and he has done a wonderful job in 2023 of delivering a fruit-forward, easy drinking wine that has personality, spice and a saline kick that gives an extra level of interest to the brambed red fruits. Good stuff. A value pick. 25hl/h yield this year, after being impacted by mildew, but clearly they have done a good job of sorting, something that was not always easy in the Entre deux Mers region.

A gourmand, straightforward wine, the 2023 Marjosse exhales aromas of violet, blueberries, mulberries and flowers, followed by a medium-bodied, juicy and layered palate with a delicate, fresh core of fruit and a mouthwatering, penetrating and ethereal finish. This wine represents an excellent value, showcasing a delightful balance of flavor and finesse.

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.
