Durfort-Vivens is an illustrious 2nd growth – right up there with Bordeaux’s best! It has a long, rich history and with the current steward of the property, Gonzague it was the first estate in Margaux to go fully organic and is now fully biodynamic, too. The estate now puts 20% of the wine in clay amphora to add layers of complexity outside of oak barrels and preserve fruit and freshness in their wines. We have been blown away by the value of this estate which lies immediately next-door to the much more expensive Château Margaux.
2017 is a fabulous vintage that offers a rich and explosive feel with intensity throughout the palate. Sweet floral notes, cedar, mint and spice add edge alongside a beautiful core of red and black fruit. Cherry blossom and mouthwatering red and black fruit delights follow through to fine and subtle spicy tannins.
