About this wine
Château Durfort-Vivens 2me Cru Classé, Margaux
The Durfort property is one of the most historic in Bordeaux, dating back to the 12th century. It was owned by the influential Durfort de Duras family for seven centuries. The family also owned the nearby Château Lamothe, later renamed Château Margaux. The property was purchased in 1824 by M. de Vivens, and renamed Château Durfort-Vivens. It was classified as one of fifteen Deuxièmes Crus (Second Growths) in the original Bordeaux Wine Official Classification of 1855. Today it is managed by the Lurton family, one of the famed modern names in Bordeaux.
Château Durfort-Vivens are one the pioneers of biodynamics in Bordeaux, applying this farming method across the entire vineyard area. Claire Villars-Lurton is the driving force behind this transition, reconnecting the estate with virtuous viticulture, reintegrating biodiversity while banishing the use of chemicals. In the winery Gonzugue Lurton and his team take a light touch to allow the wines fully express the Margaux terroir. The innovative use of terracotta amphora has been integrated with classic French oak maturation to produce wines of aromatic power and refined structure.
'Over the years, the quality of the wines of Château Durfort-Vivens will continue to gain in brilliance and precision.'
