Château de Lamarque
Marquis d'Evry Red Bordeaux Blend
Haut-Médoc, Médoc, Bordeaux, France
Drank 10/28/22.
Nose is very nice, but not overpowering, with plum, blackberry, cocoa, and just a hint of oak. Smooth black fruits on the palate, with medium, well integrated tannins, and just a hint of pepper.
3/22/8/4/4 + 50 = 91 pts.
A very classically styled Bordeaux and a good value at $30. I've heard the 2019 is also very good, but a bit more fruit forward. If anyone has tried both what is your preference?.

Needed an hour or so to open. I probably will hold off on the rest of these for a few more years.

This is a nice Red Bordeaux. Showing black and red fruits with wood, light vanilla, tobacco, peppercorn, espresso and earth.
Medium plus in body with medium plus acidity and nice legs.
Dry on the palate with nice length on the finish, firm tannins and tangy cranberries.
Still young and needs another 5 years to mature properly.
14% alcohol by volume.
89 points.

Vintage 2011
A great Bordeaux wine that blends tobacco, earth and cassis aromatics with a spicy, cassis and blackberry character. Licorice, thyme, earth, ripe black cherries and espresso notes in the nose. Full bodied, long finish.

Very meaty and lean, with some big tannin initially and throughout. Excellent value - black plum, grilled meat, leather, peppercorn, gravel mineral, Red currant. Definitely needed a full flavored steak or lamb chop in my mind, and still needs a few more years but none the less, a great wine.

Château de Lamarque “Héritiers des Marquis d’Evry” 2021
Haut-Médoc, Bordeaux, France 🇫🇷
Overview
This vintage is a classic Bordeaux blend—Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot—sourced from a historic Haut-Médoc château with roots stretching back to the 15th century. It’s the “second wine” of Château de Lamarque, offering approachability while retaining estate quality. The appellation’s gravelly terroir and structured style are evident in every sip.
 
Aromas & Flavors
Rippling with blackcurrant and cassis, the wine is wreathed in cedar, tobacco, and earthy undertones. On the palate, dense fruit and toast meld with a hint of spice—classic left-bank elegance with that savory Médoc streak.
 
Mouthfeel
Medium to full-bodied with refined tannins and vibrant acidity. A balanced structure makes it satisfying now, while promising graceful evolution over the next 5–10 years.
 
Winemaking Notes
The estate cultivates a blend of vines: roughly 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Petit Verdot. Fermentation occurs in hidden concrete vats, followed by aging—with about 25% in new French oak barrels.
 
Food Pairing
Perfectly paired with robust fare: beef steaks, roast lamb, silverside, game, and dishes enveloped in rich, savory sauces.

Verdict
A solid Haut-Médoc “second wine” that mirrors the terroir and tradition of Château de Lamarque at a more accessible level—classic, savory, and beautifully balanced. Cheers!
