Château HAUT-MARBUZET
Red

See the technical sheet

The 2022 vintage in the press:

Vinous (N. Martin - January 2025): 93/100 "The 2022 Haut-Marbuzet has a refined, finely delineated bouquet with black cherry, bilberry, orange rind and light leathery scents that unfold in the glass. The palate is well balanced with pliant, saturated tannins. As I wrote in my primeur note, this is a less bold and concentrated Haut-Marbuzet. Instead, one finds more precision and terroir expression, especially on the creamy-textured and persistent finish. This is excellent."

J-M Quarin (February 2025): 94/100 "Black colour. Intense nose, with fresh, ripe fruit. Delicious on the palate, with a fine touch that caresses the palate and melts into subtle aromas and a fine grain of persistence. Very good and hard to spit out. The best recent vintage I know.Open young!"

The 2021 vintage in the press:

La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2025): 94/100 “True to form, Haut-Marbuzet has produced a charming 2021, a silky wine with a caressing texture and smooth tannins. The Merlot grapes give it the roundness and smoothness that have made it such a success”.

Vinous (N.Martin - November 2023): 91/100 “The 2021 Haut-Marbuzet has gained some exuberance since I tasted the barrel sample. Today it's very pure and quite seductive, with black cherry and blueberry fruit and hints of vanilla pod emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy, ripe fruit and a fine bead of acidity, but perhaps it just misses a little complexity on the finish. Otherwise, I have no complaints about this Haut-Marbuzet at all.”

The 2016 vintage in the press:

Vinous (N. Martin - January 2020): 90/100 "The 2016 Haut-Marbuzet has a straightforward bouquet of brambly red fruit, a little rustic in style but gaining finesse with a little toughness toward the finish."
