VINUM Magazin für Weinkultur im Juni 2022:
einer von nur zwei Weinen mit der Höchstnote 20/20 im gesamten Jahrgang
Superbe, betörende Aromatik von Blüten und Beeren, mineralische Noten; entwickelt gemächlich unerhörte Tiefe, dank der schieren Klasse der mineralisch-seidigen ungemein feinkörnigen Gerbstoffe, der immensen Dichte und ewigen Länge; der reine Ausdruck von Beere und Terroir - herrlich.

William Kelly zum Chateau Durfort Vivens 2021 Margaux (Februar 2024):The 2021 Durfort Vivens has turned out well in bottle, offering up aromas of dark berries and plums mingled with notions of pencil shavings and vanilla pod. Medium to full-bodied, layered and lively, it exhibits impressive depth and sweetness of fruit, not only for the vintage but also for a blend dominated by fully 97% Cabernet Sauvignon, concluding with a long, precise finish. 93 Punkte
Der Chateau Durfort Vivens 2021 Margaux am Gaumen von James Suckling (Mai 2022):A very focused red, showing blackberry, blueberry and currant aromas and flavors, together with bark. It’s full and layered with lots of fine tannins that give this wine a velvety texture. 97% cabernet sauvignon and 3% merlot. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification.
Decanter.com (Georgina Hindle) : 94 / 100
Bright red berries on the nose - strawberry and raspberry, softly fragrant with rose petal, violets and dark chocolate scents. Succulent and really delicately juicy with the perfume surrounding the berries on the palate with a soft chalky, minerality coming through from the acidity. Lovely balance, this is fresh and so alive but also deeply flavoured, with the Cabernet (97% of the blend) mint markers in abundance. Delicious and vibrant, still with a youthful energy and a precise tannic structure giving the frame. You can tell they got maturity, but have also achieved perfect extraction giving just the right weight without bitterness or any harsh tannins - and an exceptional length giving an abundance of freshness. Total Margaux glamour on show in a vintage where it was harder to find than usual. A surefire must buy! 30th vintage by Gonzague Lurton. A yield of 35hl/ha. Ageing in 70% new oak barrels and 30% amphoras.
