Pierre brings bags of expertise and is known to craft some of the best red and white Bordeaux wine from the Entre-Deux-Mers appellation at his Château Marjosse estate.

"A delightful Bordeaux showcasing smooth, well-integrated tannins. Notes of dark berries and hints of citrus peel are complemented by subtle floral undertones. It's approachable and already quite delicious. Beautiful, inviting fruit character."
92-93 points.

Bordeaux

Bordeaux, one of the most prestigious wine regions in the world, is located in southwestern France and is celebrated for its exceptional wines. It benefits from a temperate maritime climate, influenced by the nearby Atlantic Ocean, providing ideal conditions for viticulture. It is particularly renowned for its red wines, primarily blends of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc, offering rich, complex flavours and excellent ageing potential. Notable sub-regions include Médoc, Saint-Émilion, and Pomerol. Bordeaux also produces exquisite white wines, both dry, from Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, and sweet, from the Sauternes and Barsac areas. The region's unique terroir, combined with centuries-old winemaking traditions, results in wines of unparalleled quality and distinction. Bordeaux remains a must-visit destination for wine enthusiasts seeking world-class wines and a rich viticultural heritage.
