2019
Château Marsau (Francs Côtes de Bordeaux)
Medium-bodied, elegant, fresh, soft and floral, with a focus on its core of sweet red fruits, licorice and wisp of smoke, finishing with an intriguing sensation of salty tannins and plums. This will be even better after a few years of bottle age. 2,583 Views Tasted Mar 29, 2022 |
2018
Château Marsau (Francs Côtes de Bordeaux)
With a strong floral character, the perfume also shows hints of cocoa, dark cherry, plum, and licorice notes. Medium-bodied, elegant, lifted, and vibrant, the wine finishes with sweet, fresh cherries along with a serious dose of minerality. Close to 80% of the crop was lost due to issues with mildew during the growing season. But the tiny crop that remained produced a fabulous wine that sells for a song. 3,202 Views Tasted Oct 28, 2021 |
2017
Château Marsau (Francs Côtes de Bordeaux)
Medium-bodied, forward, open and fresh with a core of red fruits, green, leafy herbs and bright, crisp, savory red fruits. You can easily enjoy this on release or age it for a couple of years to add more nuance. The wine was aged with no new oak to maintain the freshness in the fruit. 2,297 Views Tasted Oct 28, 2021 |

Château Marsau (Bordeaux Côtes de Francs)
Flowers and sweet cassis with licorice and cocoa get this off to a going a good start. Fresh, forward, with salty tannins and round textures with bright red fruits in the finish. The estate lost 70% of their crop due to the frost. 2,924 Views Tasted Apr 26, 2018 |
2016
Château Marsau (Bordeaux Côtes de Francs)
Chocolate, licorice, black cherry, smoke, and herbs come alive in the perfume. The wine has depth, tannin, roundness and plenty of ripe, smoky black cherries and plummy fruit from start to finish. But interestingly, even though it is 100% Merlot, it needs at least a few more years in the cellar. This bottle took 90 minutes of decanting to pop. For the unprincely sum of $15, this is a winner. 4,480 Views Tasted Apr 17, 2020Using 100% Merlot from the Cotes de Francs appellation, the wine shows good color, offering black raspberry, flowers and fennel. The wine is medium bodied, forward and soft, with a lush, round, dark red fruit and minerality based finish. The best wine yet from Chateau Marsau, this should age nicely. 3,942 Views Tasted Apr 29, 2017 |
