▬ Château Haut-Marbuzet ▬

Le vin du Château Haut-Marbuzet séduit les amateurs par son profil gourmand et épicé , riche et souple, accessible dès sa jeunesse tout en restant une production de haut niveau. Un charme inné qui permet à cet excellent saint-estéphe de trouver facilement sa place en cave ou à table. La famille Duboscq exploite depuis les années 1950 ce beau plateau de graves argilo-calcaires, planté essentiellement en cabernet-sauvignon et merlot.

"The 2014 Haut Marbuzet has retained that ravishing bouquet that it showed out of barrel: plush red cherry and strawberry fruit, a little warmth, almost a cozy bouquet that you could snuggle up in on a warm night. The palate is medium-bodied with plush tannin, good body and density with kirsch, orange rind and Chinese five-spice. It is an atypical Saint Estèphe, but in 2014 this works a treat, a wine you can just revel in and enjoy, with its untrammeled deliciousness." Wine Advocate-Parker

- Millésime 2015 :
Notes :  90/100 Wine Advocate-Parker – 16.5/20 J. Robinson – 92/100 J.Suckling – 16,25/20 J-M Quarin 
Assemblage : 40% Merlot, 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Petit Verdot, 5% Cabernet Franc
"Not nearly as oaky as this wine used to be, it has generous, ripe, dry tannins with enough bright black-fruit character to balance things out. Better from 2019 and at least a decade of potential after that." James Suckling

- Millésime 2016 :
Notes : 15.5/20 J. Robinson – 94/100 J.Suckling – 93/100 Decanter – 16,75/20 J-M Quarin 
Assemblage : 40% Merlot, 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Petit Verdot, 5% Cabernet Franc
"An exuberant St.-Estèphe with a ton of fresh blackberries and blueberries, but also some smoke and terracotta on the nose. Very nice balance of fruit and fullish body, then the tannins come through on the bold finish." James Suckling

- Millésime 2017 :
Notes : 15.5/20 J. Robinson – 90-91/100 J.Suckling – 91/100 Vinous (A. Galloni) – 90-92/100 Decanter – 16/20 J-M Quarin 
Assemblage :  40% Merlot, 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Petit Verdot, 5% Cabernet Franc
"A firm and chewy young red with a solid center palate of berry and currant character. Fresh finish 90-91" James Suckling

- Millésime 2018 :
Notes : 16/20 J. Robinson – 95-96/100 J.Suckling – 91-94/100 Vinous (A. Galloni) – 91/100 Decanter – 16,75/20 J-M Quarin 
Assemblage :  40% Merlot, 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Petit Verdot, 5% Cabernet Franc
"Couleur pourpre, sombre et intense. Nez très aromatique, fin, fruité, subtil et surtout parfumé. Délicat à l'attaque, sèveux en milieu de bouche, très fondant, puis savoureux, le vin se développe tout en douceur tactile, avec des nuances complexes, sur une longue finale incrachable. Sa note pourrait monter en fin d'élevage." J-M Quarin

- Millésime 2019 :
Notes : 94-95/100 J.Suckling – 93/100 Vinous (A. Galloni) – 16,25/20 J-M Quarin 
Assemblage :  55% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Petit Verdot, 5% Cabernet Franc
"Firm plum and raspberry fruits, this is another good quality St Estephe in 2019, a good sign for the overall quality of the appellation in this vintage. Silky texture, supple and with power that shows appellation typicity. Serious firm tannins and good acidities, but with welcoming spice and liquorice adding interest." Decanter
