Tasting Notes

Vinous Neal Martin - 01 Aug 23
The 2010 Durfort-Vivens has impressive intensity on the nose with scents of blackberry, cedar, allspice and graphite, so that it develops and almost Pauillac-like personality with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with fine delineation and acidity. This completely shades preceding vintages of the decade, not a powerful Margaux and yet very well balanced with admirable purity on the finish. This is drinking supremely well at this moment but should give another 15-20 years of drinking pleasure. Tasted at the Durfort-Vivens dinner at Portland restaurant.

Jancis Robinson James Lawther - 08 Jun 22
74% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc. Aged 18 months in barrel (50% new oak).Deep crimson colour. Dark fruit and mint notes with a hint of anise or fennel (similar to that found in Le Plateau 2019). Succulent fruit on the mid palate with integrated tannins. Long, persistent finish. Definitely more precision and balance. Plenty of life and tension. (JL)
Drinking Date: 2018 - 2035
