Fresh black berries, a touch of cherry and gentle spice glide through Chateau Haut-Marbuzet 2022, wrapped in velvety but precise tannins that give the wine both charm and backbone. The palate feels layered yet not heavy, with a cool, stony, saline edge stretching out the finish and showcasing a more detailed, terroir-driven side of this usually lush Saint-Estèphe. This is a seductive, long-haul claret that balances ripe fruit with real mineral tension.
Roast rack of lamb with thyme and garlic; Dry-aged ribeye with mushroom jus; Duck breast with blackberry sauce

Château Haut-Marbuzet is the flagship Saint-Estèphe red of Château Haut-Marbuzet, a powerful yet unusually opulent Médoc wine noted for its high proportion of Merlot, long aging in 100% new French oak, and blue clay/gravel terroir overlooking the Gironde. Often described as sensual and exotic in a traditionally austere appellation, it typically shows lush black and red fruits, spice and supple tannins, while still offering the structure and longevity expected of top Left Bank Bordeaux.
