2020 ChÃ¢teau Dauzac Margaux

Chateau. Dauzac has a planted terroir in one piece of 45ha around the castle on a total area of 120ha with trees in the perimeter that block the westerly winds coming from the Atlantic Ocean. The terroir enjoys a perfect location near the Gironde at only 350 meters. The castle was owned by the insurance company MAIF since 1988 until it was sold in December 2018 for an estimated price of more than 100 million euros to the French Roulleau family. For a long time, the management was in the hands of Christine Lurton, daughter of André Lurton, until Laurent Fortin became the new director in 2013 and ensured that the quality improved a lot by means of a completely new chais, which was taken into use from the 2014 vintage. domain is also in transition to biodynamics (by 2020) and is the first Grand Cru Classé that is "vegan" (no animal products are used, ie the wine is not clarified with protein). Chateau. Since then, Dauzac once again belongs to the best of the Margaux appellation
