The 65 hectare Left Bank vineyard of Haut Marbuzet is planted to 50% Cabernet Sauvignon 40% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc .Round, plush textures, dark, juicy, fat plums, blackberries and happy tannins climax in a smoky, oaky, tasty finish. Best wine here in years!
A firm and chewy young red with a solid center palate of berry and currant character. Fresh finish.

The 2017 Haut-Marbuzet is terrific. Wild flowers, grilled herbs, sage, mint and sweet red cherries are laced throughout. Distinctly floral and medium in body, Haut-Marbuzet captures the personality of the vintage nicely. The 2017 is pleasantly rustic and full of character.
