Desmirail
From the prestigious appellation of Margaux, Desmirail is expertly managed by Denis Lurton. This Chateau was once part of the vast Rauzan estate and didn’t appear as an independent wine label until 1982. However it has since been making its own history with its wine growing in quality and reputation.

Very dark crimson. Slight edge of Marmite/yeast extract. Then very sweet, gentle and Margauxish on the palate. Firm and impressive.Inc. VAT£415.44 -
(12x75cl) 2017Jeb Dunnuck (90-93)
Château Desmirail looks to have turned out a sensational wine in the vintage, and their 2017 offers a forward, already irresistible style as well as loads of spicy red and black fruits, incense and spice aromas, and flavors. I love its purity of fruit, it has medium-bodied richness, and ripe tannin. Drink it on release and over the following 10-15 years.Inc. VAT£441.67 -
Vinous - Neal Martin (93)
The 2018 Desmirail impressed out of barrel. Now bottled, it still represents one of the best vintages that I have tasted from this Margaux estate. Gorgeous blackberry and raspberry scents feature on the nose, the new oak supportive and beautifully enmeshed. The palate is very well balanced with supple tannins, a keen line of acidity and a chalky-textured finish that is extremely well focused. This is a great success for Denis Lurton and his team. Tasted twice with consistent notes.Inc. VAT£464.81 -
