The Lurton family of Margaux property Durfort-Vivens have successfully uncovered a small 10 hectare plot in Sonoma that is capable of crafting deliciously Margaux styled wines in the heart of California. 2013 Acaibo is the product of 26 year old vines just a stone’s throw from other famous vineyards, but whilst others may tend tend towards richness and power Acaibo maintains a Margaux-like poise. Gently perfumed first impressions are brought forward by well-judged French oak notes woven into a savoury Cabernet Sauvignon framework. The gently powdery tannins coalesce with a silky feel and reassuringly ripe but suitably subtle blackcurrant fruit to balance it out.
Suckling - May 2017 - 93/100
Lots of blackcurrant, violet, and perfumed on the nose. Full to medium body, polished, ripe tannins and a long and flavorful finish. Extremely fine tannins. Needs two or three years to soften. A blend of mostly cabernet sauvignon and merlot. Some cabernet franc.
