Henri Duboscq
Château Haut Marbuzet is now a classic at Wines Direct. Our relationship with the Dubosq family goes back manyyears. The property was purchased in 1952 by Hervé Dubosq and is now managed by his son, Henri. Henri Dubosq's wines are rich and voluptuous to drink young with plenty of concentrated fruit and chocolatey-vanilla aromas, yet also age beautifully. Château Haut Marbuzet produces one of the most pleasurable wines in the Médoc. It is classified as a Cru Bourgeois, however, its wines regularly overshadow those of its celebrity Grand Cru Classé neighbours. The estate is 40 acres located about 2 kilometres north of Cos d'Estournel in the tiny village of Marbuzet in St-Estéphe. Its vineyards face the Gironde estuary, and vines are planted on gravel-rich soil.
