2023, Château Marjosse Rouge, Grand Vin de BORDEAUX

Last Year EP $15.00-

Located in the Entre Deux Mers and owned by Pierre Lurton of Cheval Blanc.

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 brambled 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.
92 Jane Anson.

The 2023 Marjosse is a huge overachiever in this vintage. Dark, rich and explosive, the 2023 packs a serious punch. Succulent black cherry, plum, liquorice and chocolate linger. Best of all, the 2023 should be a screaming value.
90-91 Antonio Galloni, Vinous.

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 flavour and finesse.
