Pierre Lurton Unveils Chateau Marjosse’s Secret Cuvées

Online • In English • 60 min

Please Note: This event has been rescheduled from April 28 to June 24 to accommodate for delays with wine shipments from France.

A member of one of Bordeaux’s legendary winemaking families, Pierre Lurton shares his extensive knowledge of the region as well as a selection of cuvées from Château Marjosse.

Lurton has owned and cultivated Château Marjosse since 1991, and he’ll lead a tasting of selections from his Anthology Wine Collection.

Started in 2017 with then newly hired winemaker Jean-Marc Domme, the Anthology wines are micro-vinifications of small-batch cuvées made from grapes on the property’s most notable parcels. Each cuvée in the collection embodies its owner’s poetic spirit and is named for one of the birds that inhabits the property.

Susan Kostrzewa, Editor-in-Chief of Wine Enthusiast, will moderate.
