Cabernet Sauvignon

Chateau Durfort-Vivens 2009

Durfort-Vivens is an illustrious 2nd growth – right up there with Bordeaux’s best! It has a long, rich history and with the current steward of the property, Gonzague it was the first estate in Margaux to go fully organic and is now fully biodynamic, too.

Grape Varietals: 74% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc, 21% Merlot

Wine Region: Margaux, Bordeaux, France

Tasting Note: 2009 vintage now showing beautifully. The aromas of plum, blackberry, and cedar standout. While in the palate the round tannins and dark fruits persist through to the finish. This is a special Bordeaux vintage that's ready to drink!

Food Pairing: Filet-Mignon with Herb-de-Provence roasted potatoes
