"Is this the best deal in Bordeaux? Most likely. According to Vinous, this is a must-have wine!"

“Marjosse’s bouquet is bursting with fruity notes! These are complemented by hints of licorice, woody nuances, and even a touch of freshness. The wine’s juicy, mouth-watering character on the palate only serves to enhance the bouquet’s inviting qualities. A delicious, savory, mouth-watering wine, ready to be enjoyed while still showing its potential for aging. In short, it’s a Bordeaux!” (Yves Beck 2025) - Pierre Lurton, director of the Yquem and Cheval Blanc estates, is the owner of this Bordeaux gem that stands out in its category for both reds and whites!

Rated 3 stars (A high-quality product that serves as a benchmark in its sector)

About the wine:

Charming, with delicious, lingering tannins. A fine red wine from this vintage for the estate.

About the estate:

Pierre Lurton, who is also director of Château Cheval Blanc and president of Château d’Yquem, purchased Château Marjosse more than twenty years ago, drawn by the old vines and the quality of the terroir: a rarity in the Entre-Deux-Mers region, the asterian limestone—the same that has made Saint-Émilion famous—lies just below the surface here. The quality and consistency of this wine, both white and red, are astonishing. The wines display remarkable balance and purity. They feature vibrant fruit, a silky and harmonious texture, and are highly drinkable while also showing excellent aging potential.

About the wine:

Marjosse 2022, from Pierre Lurton’s Entre-Deux-Mers estate, offers a briny bouquet with notes of blackcurrant and wild hedgerows. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a fresh attack, supple tannins, and a hint of black pepper and graphite on the finish. Is this the best bargain in Bordeaux? Most likely. It is a must-buy wine. 2025–2033

This wine is lovely and lively, with a nose offering subtle, creamy notes of red berries, redcurrants, and citrus. On the palate, it is firm and juicy, with slightly crisp tannins and a refined, moderately long finish. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc. Best enjoyed starting in 2025.
