    May 16, 2023 - Encore en pleine forme. Beau fruité intense sur les baies noires/rouges, avec une touche de poivron et une trame d’acidité qui lui apporte puissance et fraîcheur. Le boisé est désormais parfaitement intégré. Du potentiel pour quelques années encore.

    February 19, 2023 - À maturité et encore en belle forme. Beau fruité sur le cassis, complété de notes tertiaires (cèdre , tabac, sous-bois). Mois dense, puissant que d’autres millésimes, et plutôt gourmand, en suavité . Meilleur que quelques années plus tôt.

    November 15, 2022 - A surprisingly sumptuous nose. Black cherry, leather, forrest floor all perfume the glass. Fruit, tannins, and acidity are all still lively and balanced on the palate. Red and black fruit fade to a slight herbaceousness. This still has a few years left in it, but i wouldn’t wait too long.

    April 24, 2022 - Robe rouge sombre, opaque, avec des bords virant sur le brun. Nez fruité, fin, assez vif, se développant à l’aération. En bouche l’attaque se fait sur une belle tension, qui continue de se développer en bouche, soutenant un fruité assez fin, sur la mûre, un peu de cassis. Par rapport à d’autres millésimes, marqué par l’acidité bien présente et un peu dure. À maturité mais tiendra encore quelques années

    March 9, 2015 - I managed to buy this Haut Marbuzet vintage very cheaply so that was a good start. There was more Merlot in the 2002 than some other years and the fruit was, therefore, not exclusively black. Decanted for 3 hours, more acidity than I prefer and very medium bodied but the palate and finish were fine. The French like this vineyard more than others and I am with them.
