Crushed blueberries, blackberries, mulberries, stones, pressed flowers and dried spices on the nose. It's medium-bodied with firm, powdery tannins. Textured and refined with a fresh, mineral finish. 40% in concrete tanks/eggs and 60% in barrels. 54% cabernet sauvignon, 40% merlot and 6% petit verdot. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification.

The 2019 La Gurgue is deep, fleshy and explosive in the glass. Dark blue/purplish fruit, lavender, licorice, mint, incense and mocha lend notable complexity and fleshiness throughout. This plush Margaux has so much to offer. It's rich, effusive personality is impossible to resist.

Old vines and biodynamic farming have come together to produce a densely textured wine that celebrates the great revival of this estate. The wine is certainly firm, but it is the fruit that is also so impressive and will follow as the wine ages.
