Deep ruby in colour. On the nose, aromas of ripe black fruits are married with a subtle spiciness and chocolatey hints. Velvety tannins coat the palate and a bright acidity carries the complex flavours onto the lingering finish.
Le Plateau de Durfort-Vivens’ is a step up in intensity and is designed to represent power. It is made from 65% Cabernet and 35% Merlot sourced from 25-year-old vines, grown on deep sandy gravel soils and aged for 16 months in a combination of 66% in clay amphorae and 33% in French oak (10% new).
Château Durfort-Vivens owes its name to the Durfort de Duras, a powerful family in the south-west of France that came to Margaux in the 14th century. In 1824, the name of Vivens was added when Viscount Robert Labat de Vivens inherited the property.
