Über das Weingut und die Weine
Immerse in the heart of the Bordeaux countryside at Château Prieuré Marquet. With the patchwork of vines extending over the hillside, the region is beautiful in all seasons.
The Prieuré Marquet vines, in the Bordeaux Supérieur appellation, extend over the communes of Saint Martin du Bois and its surroundings. Of the initial 3 hectares, the estate has extended to 17 hectares of the vines. With a grape variety that reigns supreme: Merlot gives the wines an admirable silkiness on the palate. Planted in 100% Merlot with vines aged between 15 and 20 years, the vineyard is managed using sustainable agriculture. Thanks to the presence of other grape varieties, Château Prieuré Marquet will be able to offer a range of wines of original diversity.
At Château Prieuré Marquet, Bernard Canonne, owner, and Paul Junet, winemaker and consulting oenologist, work to create original vintages. They seek for each vintage this singularity that characterizes the philosophy of their passion: to transcend what nature offers them throughout the seasons.
It’s the vintage that decides the wine! Aging takes place in 350 liter barrels, 60 hectoliter tuns and stainless steel vats, for between 12 to 18 months, or even longer, depending on the potential of the wines - each wine having an aging capacity of 5 to 20 years. All Château Prieuré Marquet wines have a very particular personality. Density, freshness in the mouth and great length are their original signature. Each vintage is enriched with notes, aromas and particular gourmet flavors, linked, at the same time, to the work of the vineyard, to the action of nature and the harvest of the year.
