‘Marjosse is always a friend of shrewd consumers seeking value-priced Bordeaux.'
Robert Parker jnr.
The up and coming Chateau Marjosse was purchased in 1997 by the very talented Pierre Lurton, managing director & winemaker of Cheval Blanc & Chateau D'Yquem. The estate consists of 65 hectares of vineyards, exceptionally well-sited on a clay and limestone plateau around 300 metres above sea level.
16 hactares of Chateau Marjosse is planted to 45% Semillon, 45% Sauvignon Blanc and 10% Muscadelle for the white wine.
The wines are made by Lurton in Chateau Marjosse's refurbished 200 year old cellar are fermented in temperature controlled stainless steel before being raised in French oak. The finished wines are juicy, sleek and among the best value Bordeaux on the market!
2014 Chateau Marjosse Blanc displays grapefruit and lemon wax, with a fresh, sweet, lively character that refreshes with its lemon accent. This is the perfect, easy drinking, summer wine made from 45% Sauvignon Blanc, 45% Semillon and 10% Muscadelle.
'Plenty of lime and mineral character with hints of sliced apples. Full body, tangy finish. Drink now. One of the best whites from here in a long time. (Apr15)
