Château Marjosse 2022

Fragrant notes on the nose, fresh, fruity and floral. Succulent and supple, fresh acidity hits the palate first, a burst of red fruit—so juicy and alive—before the mineral, salty and liquorice tang takes over, with strict tannins giving the wine tension. Really well made, intense yet detailed and sleek. Lively, I love the burst of fruit with the minerality taking the fore at the end. This will be extremely drinkable.

Black cherries, currants and flowers show in the nose. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, soft, forward, elegant and fruity. This should deliver pleasure with ease on release. Drink from 2025-2030. 89-91 pts.

Ripe cherry aromatics, firm tannins holding everything in place, yet generous enough to get things revved up and keep the focus on the fruit. This is exactly what you look for in a smaller chateaux in a vintage like 2022—easy to drink with plenty of personality. 20% barrels for ageing, the rest in vat. Frost at the beginning of April reduced quantities and meant a slightly greater focus on Merlot this year, but there are still black pepper and spiced violet notes from the old Malbec. Jean-Marc Domme, winemaker since March 2018; Pierre Lurton, owner. A value buy.

A playful, charming nose with crisp red fruits. On the palate, harmony and precision prevail, carried by perfectly ripe fruit. A touch of graphite lends seriousness to an overall graceful profile.

The bouquet of Marjosse is brimming with fruity notes! They are complemented by aromas of licorice, woody nuances and even a touch of freshness. The juicy, mouthwatering character on the palate only reinforces the bouquet’s inviting qualities. A gourmet, flavorful, mouthwatering wine, ready to be enjoyed while also asserting its ability to age in the cellar. In short, it’s a Bordeaux!
