Château Durfort-Vivens Margaux Cru Classé Organic 2019
Selected with intention
The 2019 Château Durfort-Vivens Margaux Cru Classé, now certified organic and biodynamic, is a truly captivating expression of this esteemed Left Bank estate. The 2019 vintage in Bordeaux was exceptional, yielding wines of impressive ripeness and balance. This Margaux displays a deep garnet hue and an intensely aromatic bouquet of ripe blackcurrant, cassis, and violet, intertwined with notes of cedar, tobacco leaf, and a delicate floral perfume. On the palate, it is full-bodied and exquisitely refined, with incredibly fine-grained, silky tannins that provide a seamless texture. The fruit is pure and concentrated, supported by a fresh acidity that leads to an exceptionally long, harmonious finish. A Margaux of immense elegance and profound aging potential, destined for decades of graceful evolution.
