| Tasting note |
There’s a cassis bush nose, which introduces a medium-bodied red with plenty of tannin but no hint of hardness. A very nice, hand-crafted wine that’s already appealing. From Biodynamically grown grapes. Drink in 2019. By James Suckling.
Ripe red cherry, tobacco, cedar, licorice and spice run through the 2014 Durfort-Vivens. A very typical 2014 with expressive aromatics, midweight structure and notable persistence, the 2014 is quite pretty today. By Antonio Galloni @ Vinous, Feb 2017.
The 2014 Durfort Vivens has a backward, earthy, damp undergrowth-scented bouquet that one comes to expect from the estate. It has its own charm. The palate is medium-bodied with stringy tannin, rustic red fruit with a green edge that becomes more apparent towards the finish. Maybe I am missing something, but this just does not appeal as much as other Margaux 2014s tasted in bottle. By Wine Advocate, Sep 2017. |
