About the estate:
Whether it’s Bordeaux or Bordeaux Supérieur, red, white, or rosé, Éric Duffau masterfully crafts wines from the region’s AOCs. In 1979, he took over the family estate located in the Entre-deux-Mers region, on the left bank of the Dordogne River. His 46-hectare vineyard is situated primarily on hillsides facing Saint-Émilion.

Wine rated (2017 guide) 15,5/20 (Good wine)
Rated estate (2022 guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)
About the wine:
The 2015 oak-aged vintage strikes a balance between full ripeness and precise aging; it will age well for ten years.
About the estate:
Éric Duffau demonstrates that Bordeaux grape varieties harvested at peak ripeness, carefully vinified, and aged with restraint produce impeccable wines at an excellent price point across all three red, white, and rosé categories. The clay-based terroirs on limestone subsoils, located primarily in Génissac and Moulon, impart all their flavors to the wines, but slightly excessive oak can mask the fruit’s natural character.
