THE history OF
CHÂTEAU HAUT-MARBUZET
Founded in 1770, Haut-Marbuzet is one of the oldest estates in Saint-Estèphe. Inherited by Petronille and Rose Fatin, the vines were later negotiated in 1825 for the Mac Carthy family, descendants of Irish Jacobite emigrants.
Following a conflict of succession, the estate had to be divided up, and 7 hectares went to the Poissonnier family who named it Haut-Marbuzet.
It was only in 1952 that the estate really began to exist. Hervé Duboscq, a wine merchant, acquired these plots of land as a life annuity. By successive purchase of the former properties of the domain, he reconstituted a vineyard which now reaches approximately 70 hectares.
In 1962, his son Henri joined him and gradually took over the responsibility of the property. Thanks to his daring choices in viticulture and winemaking, he produced a wine with a personalized and voluptuous style based on a vinification that favored the smoothness of the tannins. Moreover, he was the first to use new oak barrels from France. All this will allow the fame and the quality of Haut Marbuzet considered as close to the most Classified Growths of the appellation.
CHÂTEAU HAUT-MARBUZET,
THE property
Located between Château Cos d'Estournel and Château Montrose, Haut Marbuzet has between 8,000 and 9,000 vines located on parcels covering 70 hectares in the Saint-Estèphe appellation.
The Marbuzet plateau is made up of a croup of Günzian gravel with a clay-limestone subsoil, benefiting from an excellent exposure overlooking the Gironde.
CHÂTEAU HAUT-MARBUZET,
FROM THE VINEYARDS to the bottle
Benefiting from an oceanic climate and a practice of reasoned viticulture, the wine making is done in a traditional way using indigenous yeasts as well as an ageing in oak barrels 100% new. This will give the wine a smooth and mellow character.
Haut-Marbuzet is also considered charming in its youth, developing spicy and red fruit notes.
Opulent, deep, with generous fruit, the seductive character of Haut Marbuzet is the pride of its owner. In addition to its grand vin, the estate also produces two second wines: Château Tour de Marbuzet and Château Mc Carthy.
