Druvor
94.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot & 0,5% Cabernet Franc
Tasting note
A blend of 94.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot and a touch of Cabernet Franc, the 2024 Durfort Vivens exhibits aromas of cassis, dark berries, violet and spices. Medium to full-bodied, dense and structured, it's framed by a good chassis of tannins, with a lively mid-palate that segues into a somewhat austere, firm finish. Despite this compact aftertaste, this is a strong effort in the context of the vintage.
The 62-hectare estate, of which some 55 hectares are planted, has been directed by Gonzague Lurton since 1992 and farmed biodynamically since 2013. Soils are quaternary gravels, with a rather low percentage of clay when compared with the likes of Châteaux Margaux and Palmer. Cabernet Sauvignon dominates the blend, delivering wines of perfume, intensity and concentration. Lurton finds that physiological maturity and analytical maturity are much more synchronized with the new farming methods, even if in a vintage such as 2018 he's suffered, producing a mere 6,000 bottles. Recent vintages have certainly been on a qualitative roll, and today Durfort Vivens unquestionably lives up to its 1855 second growth status.
