Chateau Durfort-Vivens, Margaux, France 2014 Rutini Trumpeter green pears and meadow herbsThe second wine from the biodynamic estate of Durfort Vivens, this is a deliciously ripe fruity wine, dominated by 82% Cabernet Sauvignon. It has a crisp accessible character that will allow it to age relatively quickly. The wine has juicy acidity, red berry fruits and final acidity. 93 Pts Wine Enthusiast
