Dufort Vivens Les Plantes 2019
Up there with Bordeaux’s best! This was the first estate in Margaux to go fully organic and is now fully biodynamic, too. Les Plantes is aged sixteen months in clay jars and oak barrels, which adds heaps of wonderful flavours. The nose is perfumed with dark brilliant fruits, chocolate, and oriental spices. While on the palate, the wine carries freshness, smooth tannin, and a medium body. This special cuvée holds great value, and is ready to be enjoyed with roast lamb and garlic rosemary.
