Careful farming, manual harvesting, mastered élevage … This is decidedly a cru bourgeois at the height of its genre. More info

This cru bourgeois comes from a gravelly terroir with a clay-limestone sub-soil. The domain (Château Haut-Marbuzet) has favoured careful traditional farming and manual harvesting. The wine is aged in barriques (25% new wood) and unfurls an intense ruby hue which exudes notes of very ripe, almost candied, red fruit. We find notes of vanilla and woodiness, testimony of its time in wood. The dense palate is marked by wonderful freshness.

Château Tour de Marbuzet serve at a temperature of 16°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Carré d'agneau rôti, Rognon de veau à la moutarde, Pigeonneau rôti.

    Information about domain Château Chambert-Marbuzet

    Built at the beginning of the 19th century, this château was purchased by Hervé Duboscq, owner of the famous Château Marbuzet, in 1962. Chambert Marbuzet is vinified in the same way as the latter and in the same winery. The wines are matured in three-year-old oak barrels for 18 months. They draw their unusual character from the clay-limestone soil, which contrasts with the gravelly soil found in other vineyards in Saint-Estèphe.
