Vinous
par Neal Martin le 01/04/2022
The 2010 Durfort-Vivens has impressive intensity on the nose with scents of blackberry, cedar, allspice and graphite, so that it develops and almost Pauillac-like personality with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with fine delineation and acidity. This completely shades preceding vintages of the decade, not a powerful Margaux and yet very well balanced with admirable purity on the finish. This is drinking supremely well at this moment but should give another 15-20 years of drinking pleasure.
