"Always outstanding, this is a magnificent white wine that deserves your full attention! ~ Jeb Dunnuck"

"Marjosse Blanc 2023 is delicious. Crisp, lively, and inviting, the 2023 will make a delicious white aperitif wine over the next few years. Crushed stones, mint, white pepper, and lime bring lovely nuances throughout the tasting. The floral top notes and tropical nuances really explode on the finish. (Vinous 2024) - Pierre Lurton, director of Châteaux d'Yquem and Cheval Blanc, is the owner of this Gem enjoyed as an aperitif or with a seafood platter.

3-star rating (High-quality production, serving as a benchmark in its sector)

About the estate:

Pierre Lurton, who is also director of Château Cheval Blanc and president of Château d'Yquem, bought Château Marjosse more than twenty years ago, attracted by the old vines and the quality of the terroir: something quite rare in Entre-Deux-Mers, the asteriated limestone, the same that makes Saint-Émilion famous, is found here at the surface. The quality and consistency of this wine, both white and red, is astonishing. The wines are remarkably balanced and pure. They have vibrant fruit, a silky and harmonious texture, and are very drinkable while also showing great aging potential.

About wine:

Although initially somewhat varietal in terms of aroma, with Sauvignon Blanc coming to the fore, as it settles in the glass, I appreciate the energy and subtle opulence coming from the Sémillons, which exude white stone fruits, but also lemon zest and a lot of invigorating freshness on the medium finish. Aged for several months on lees in concrete vats, with regular stirring, and only 5% aged in oak barrels. A wine to enjoy on its own or with pan-fried scallops and risotto. 2025-2030

About wine:

This wine offers juicy, taut fruit with a zesty, spicy character. Notes of apples and pears. It is medium-bodied, fresh, and crisp with lively acidity.

About wine:

Always outstanding, Château Marjosse Blanc 2023 is no exception to the rule, offering vibrant notes of crushed citrus, lemon zest, and minty herbs in its medium-bodied, bright, racy, and mineral profile. This is a magnificent white wine that deserves your full attention.

About wine:

Lemon, grapefruit, and green apple dominate the nose. On the palate, the wine is fresh, lively, and crisp, with crunchy green apples and lemon juice on the finish. Easy to drink, this is an excellent summer wine to accompany seafood or simply for pleasure. Drink between 2025 and 2030.
