89-91 A wine with delicious juicy fruit, so rich that it dominates the ripe tannins. It is concentrated, but also elegant.

The aromas are all dominated by new wood. But to taste, this super cru bourgeois is all about fruit. It is sweet, generous, not having typical Saint-Estèphe tannins, but showing more elegance. A great success.

91-93 A huge, tannin-packed wine which shows how the wines of St.-Estèphe are exhibiting their classic dryness and power. It will develop slowly, but surely.

91-93 Barrel sample. An impressive wine with good balance, sweet fruit and a delicious strand of fresh blackberry juice. The tannins are dark, but fit well with the fruit.

One of the stars in the world of the crus bourgeois, categorized as cru bourgeois exceptionnel in 2003, this wine is qualitatively at the level of many classed growths. Its rich fruit is punctuated with toasty new wood flavors, which should soften and balance in the next few years. An impressive wine that shows great power.

Always a star turn, Haut-Marbuzet hasn’t failed in 2002. It is a modern style of wine, dominated by toast and wood tannins. But there is plenty of rich, black fruit to balance, and the spices and vanilla flavors are already blending well together.
