CHÂTEAU LA GURGUE
MARGAUX
Claire Villars Lurton was 25 when she took over the management of Châteaux Ferrière, Haut-Bages Libéral and La Gurgue. Over a number of years, she has undertaken a major rebuilding of all the wineries. La Gurgue is located on the north eastern flank of Margaux, on a beautiful plateau in Curton where there is deep gravel soil.
The vines average 30 years of age and the blend is 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot. The 2017 vintage is drinking beautifully now, whilst the 2020 is beginning to show it’s class.
