Prelude is a can’t-miss pairing with marinated Brown Sugar BBQ Chicken, juicy burgers, or cave-ripened cheese.

Thanks to its origins in the Côtes de Francs region in Bordeaux, Prelude de Marsau is a prime example of power and simplicity. Heady aromas of violets and dark-stone elements coast along a fresh, fluid core of salted black minerals and dark fruit.

The second wine of this esteemed chateau, Prelude de Marsau is made from 100% Merlot grapes—a symbol of Bordeaux’s famous Right Bank. Winemaking techniques honed for generations are tailored to each individual vineyard and designed to respect the unique characteristics of each vintage. Capturing the natural concentration of the fruit results in the most expressive and distinctive character of the terroir and grape variety.
