Château Marjosse
Château Marjosse, located in Tizac de Curton, has been owned by Pierre Lurton for some fifteen years. From the very first vintages, the determination to produce quality wines has enabled the Marjosse brand to make a name for itself in Bordeaux.

Château Marjosse 's main asset is its exceptional terroir. Quite rare in the Entre-Deux-Mers region, asteriated limestone, the same that has made Saint Emilion wines famous, is found here in outcrop. Château Marjosse has taken off again. Several high-quality plots have been added to the vineyard. The red vines are on average 20 years old, enabling Pierre Lurton and his vineyard manager to select the best plots for the first Château Marjosse wine (around 100,000 bottles: half the production), with the aim of restoring the brand to its former glory. Managed in the style of the grands crus (controlled yields, optimum ripening of the grapes thanks to rational leaf thinning, etc.), these vines are, in part, harvested by hand. Vinification takes place in an exceptional facility: Les Chais Pierre Lurton.

Built in Grézillac in 2000, and enlarged in 2008-2009, these buildings, perfectly integrated into their surroundings, are as aesthetic as they are functional, enabling a high-performance technical team to pursue the rigorous selection efforts undertaken in the vineyards. The first wine is traditionally aged in oak barrels, while the second wine is matured in vats, to preserve the fruit and produce a round, full-bodied wine aimed at a wider clientele.

"An exceptional level for its category!

"Very fine, elegant and juicy, with a refined fruitiness reminiscent of prune d'ente. Silky, mischievous, the palate already plays with wood to present very delicate fruit and velvety tannins. A balanced, salivating wine, made for pleasure and to last". (Le Figaro 2022) - A gourmet red Bordeaux from Pierre Lurton, director of Châteaux d'Yquem and Cheval Blanc!

(2012 vintage notes)

This pale-gold Entre-deux-Mers is highly aromatic, with scents of exotic fruit, citrus and floral notes of boxwood and broom. Fresh and lively on the palate, well-balanced with a long, flavorful finish. Enjoy with grilled fish, for example...
