Why We're Buying
Château Durfort-Vivens gets better with time. In fact, it's the only Bordeaux wine estate to jump from a fifth-growth to a second-growth classification ever. The Margaux property produces a red blend that changes based on the vintage, making each year's production unique.
Critics Scores
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
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. (WK)
