Chateau Durfort-Vivens, Margaux
"Denne 2. cru classé har været ejet af Lurtonfamilien siden 1961. I dag er 55 hektar, beplantet med 85 procent cabernet sauvignon, biodynamisk dyrket. Den klassiske margaux-næse næsten springer op af glasset og spreder sin elegante parfume i hele lokalet. Her er perfekt velafstemte cabernetnoter i form af blød solbærfrugt, capsicum (peberfrugt/chili), tobaksblade, blyant og lakrids. Munden er relativt blød og glat. Testens bedste vin på nuværende tidspunkt."

The 2019 Dufort Vivens is a brilliant Margaux, unwinding in the glass with aromas of blackberries, licorice, sweet soil tones, spices and rose petals. Full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with a fleshy core of fruit, rich, powdery tannins and a lively spine of acidity, it concludes with a long and penetrating finish. The blend is dominated by fully 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, which lends the wine immense nobility. Anyone who isn’t aware of just how good Gonzague Lurton’s wines are these days should taste a bottle. - William Kelley


The 2019 Durfort-Vivens has fleshed out nicely. Silky, red/purplish fruit, blood orange and pomegranate give this plush Margaux fabulous depth. Time in the glass brings out very pretty floral accents to round things out. This classy Margaux is elegant, nuanced and polished. It's a terrific effort from Gonzague Lurton. - Antonio Galloni
