Vivens by Ch. Dufort Vivens Margaux 2016 750ml
Winemaker
Chateau Durfort-Vivens Vivens Margaux is a prestigious wine from the Margaux appellation in Bordeaux, France. It is the second wine of the Grand Cru Classé Chateau Durfort-Vivens, named after the Durfort de Duras family who owned the estate for 500 years until the 19th century. The Vivens Margaux is made from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot grapes, and aged in oak barrels for 14-16 months. The resulting wine is complex and elegant, with aromas of blackcurrant, cherry, and vanilla, and a rich, full-bodied flavor with silky tannins. This wine is a true expression of the Margaux terroir and is an excellent representation of the high quality wine produced in this region.
Tasting Notes
This wine has a beautiful deep ruby colour with purple tints. The nose is very expressive, with intense aromas of red fruits, white lilac and violet alongside mineral and spicy notes. Rich and round, the body is well structured with polished tannins and delicate layers of oak.
