Tasting notes
A complex and complete wine already, with berry, cherry, orange peel, terra cotta and dried mushroom aromas. Medium-bodied with a pretty core of fruit and crunchy tannins. Savory finish. A blend of 91% cabernet sauvignon and 9% merlot, From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification.

The 2025 Durfort-Vivens offers a striking mix of textural intensity and finesse. Crushed flowers, mint, lavender, sage, tobacco and incense add tons of inner sweetness and perfume. Dark red/purplish fruit emerges with time. This really opens beautifully with a bit of time in the glass, showing commendable textural presence and tons of class to match. The blend is 91% Cabernet Sauvignon and 9% Merlot. All it needs is time to open texturally. That should come with bottle age.
