Straddling the Margaux and Haut-Médoc appellations, Clos du Jaugueyron is a mini estate (8 ha in total) in the southern Médoc run like a vegetable garden by Mr. and Mrs. Théron. With attention to the smallest detail, they produce true Margaux, as dense and spicy as they are slender. Quoted as "a safe address" by M. Bettane, and as "one of the most interesting properties in the Médoc at the moment" by the Revue du Vin de France.
The "Nout" cuvée, which is more quickly accessible, has a majority of Merlot (55%), while the Grand Vin gives pride of place to Cabernet Sauvignon (65%).More- To keep or to drink:

With their Haut-Médoc, Laurence Alias and Pascale Choime, respectively engineer and oenologist, also have a half-hectare in Margaux (Cantenac) pampered like a vegetable garden. It gathers 6 Bordeaux grape varieties (with Petit Verdot, Carménère and Malbec), some of which are more than a century old. Biodynamic cultivation, nothing else in the cellar but the grapes and a little sulfur, aging in 400 liter barrels, everything is done to stay as close as possible to the most delicate and crisp fruit.
Moineaux is the 2018 vintage of the usual cuvée produced in Margaux. Airy and subtly fruity (raspberry juice), it did not receive the approval of the appellation because it is considered atypical: it is consequently labeled as Vin de France.

A small Margaux classified growth (24 ha), Ferrière is a traditional Margaux, frank and pleasant, moderately powerful but perfectly balanced. Its capacity for ageing is undeniable. Certified organicsince 2015, Ferrière was doubly certified biodynamic in 2018, with the Biodyvin and Demeter labels.

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2023): 94/100 “The 2021 Ferrière is a very shy, reticent wine. It has good depth, but all its energy is presently directed inward. Blue fruit, gravel, spice, menthol, licorice and mocha open with a bit of coaxing, wine's flavor profile and overall feel. Yields were just 24 hectoliters-per-hectare.”
J.M Quarin (April 2022): 94/100 “Deep, dark purple color. Intense nose of ripe, fresh fruit. Meticulous on entry, very tasty in the middle, also very pleasant, well-constructed, the wine evolves tasty, towards a long, persistent finish, with a lovely coated tannic relief.”

La Revue du Vin de France (December 2022): 95/100 “Claire Villars-Lurton has pushed her small Margaux cru to new heights in a good decade. Château Ferrière now represents one of the best value for money in the Médoc. Whether 2018 or 2019, these are top-flight wines. We praise their elegance and the brilliance of their fruit, the result of work in the vineyard (biodynamic) and in the cellars.”
Vinous (A. Galloni - March 2021): 94/100 "The 2018 Ferrière is a powerful, tightly wound wine. Inky dark fruit, gravel, cured meats, graphite, smoke and lavender all run through the 2018. Readers will have to be especially patient, as the 2018 needs time to unwind. Yields are down from an average of 45 hectoliters per hectare to just 26, which no doubt contrinutes to the wine's natural intensity. The blend is 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot and 2% Cabernet Franc, in other words, the Cabernet Sauvignon is especially high, a recent trend here because of climate change."

The 2016 vintage in the press:
Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2018): 93+/100 "The 2016 Ferrière is a dense, full-bodied wine that is going to need at least a few years in bottle to shed some of its tannins. Old vines imbue the 2016 with a palpable sense of power and resonance that comes through in the wine's dark, somber personality. The tannins are equally imposing though, so patience is essential. Blackberry, smoke and gravel are some of the notes that build as the 2016 starts to open in the glass."

Vinous (A. Galloni - January 2025): 96/100 "The 2022 Durfort-Vivens is a heady, explosive wine. Ample and creamy, the 2022 is seriously impressive. The blend is 84% Cabernet Sauvignon and 16% Merlot, a bit more Merlot than normal. That seems to have filled out the mid-palate, adding a level of juiciness that is quite complementary to the wine's underlying structure. Inky dark fruit, new leather, menthol, licorice and lavender build into a finish that is both opulent and virile. Ageing was 16 months, 70% in new oak and 30% in amphora."

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2023): 95/100 “The Durfort-Vivens 2021 was magnificent, rich, dynamic and super-expressive. Above all, the 2021 is perfectly balanced. Black fruit, lavender, licorice, leather and clove burst from the glass. Today the 2021 is an infant. It needs time to shed some of its considerable tannin and for the acids to soften, although that might not ever fully happen.”

Plush on the nose with blueberry and violet scents, this is Margaux in style though much tighter than I anticipated. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, fine delineation and poise. It's pretty delineated towards the finish that shows more mineralité than previous vintages. There is an appealing linearity here, a trait that Gonzague Lurton seeks in this wines. Excellent.”

Blackberry, grilled herbs, licorice, leather and crème de cassis are all vividly sketched in this layered, expressive Margaux. Readers should expect a dark, exotic Margaux that stands a bit apart from the norm for the appellation."

The Médoc has its local appellations, its châteaux, its terraces... and its Japanese winemaker. Arriving in 2010, Osamu Uchida settled in the commune of Cissac-Médoc (bordering Pauillac and Saint-Estèphe) with the aim of producing wines that combine Japanese perfectionism with Bordeaux oenological know-how. On his micro-vineyard of less than 3 ha, Osamu Uchida produces several cuvées, including Miracle, 100% Cabernet-Sauvignon, 20% de-stemmed by hand, aged in 500-l barrels, bottled unfined and unfiltered, with a minimum of SO2. His 2023 is fresh, fruity (pure blackberry juice), moderately tannic and slightly acidic, a Médoc with good length, as delicate as it is original.

Vinous (A. Galloni - January 2025): 97/100 "The 2022 Haut-Bages Libéral is huge and explosive right out of the gate. A rush of dark red cherry/plum fruit, rose petal, blood orange, incense, licorice and mocha saturates the palate. Saline notes extend the mid-palate and finish effortlessly. This is one of the most exuberant, ample wines I have tasted from Claire Villars-Lurton. I would give the 2022 a number of years in bottle to shed some baby fat. Today, it tastes almost like a barrel sample! The purity and primary intensity of the fruit is remarkable. The Haut-Bages Libéral was raised in a combination of 40% new oak, 40% once-used barrels and 20% a mix of concrete and amphora. This is one of under-the-radar gems of 2022."

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2022): 96/100 "The 2020 Haut-Bages Libéral is exceptionnally beautiful and vivid. Hard candy, kirsh, rose petal, cinnamon and blood orange are some of the many notes that race across the palate. A wine of magnificent purity and silkness, the Haut-Bages Libéral is simply captivating in its intensity. Bright acids punctuate the articulate, persistent finis. Magnificent."

Deep and translucent in feel, the 2019 gradually reveals hints of crushed red berry fruit, mint, spice, rose petal and aromatic presence. All the 2019 needs is a few years to fully come together."

It has a very attractive bouquet with pure black fruit, cedar and light iris flower scents. It is not powerful, yet there is elegance here. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins and a crisp line of acidity. Just a hint of mocha lurks in the background, but there is a satisfying, almost citric freshness toward the finish.”

The palate is medium-bodied with a fleshy mouthfeel, plenty of graphite tinged red fruit. Approachable in style and sensually fulfilling, it just lacks a bit of grip backbone on the finish.

This beautiful 24-hectare estate has been run by Alain Moueix since 1992. He applies the same philosophy and methods as at Fonroque (Saint-Émilion): organic farming since 2015, biodynamic certification in 2018, search for freshness and elegance through controlled extractions... Mazeyres offers delicate and measured wines, without blush, with a great finesse of flavor that increases even more in recent vintages.
The 2022 vintage in the press:
Vinous (A. Galloni - January 2025): 92/100 "The 2022 Mazeyres is aromatic, bold and racy. Crushed flowers, sage, mint, spice, many of them in cooler spots within Pomerol, which was certainly a help in 2022. As a result, this retained terrific energy. Lifted floral and savory notes extend the clean, bracing finish."
Bettane + Desseauve (Guide 2026) : 92/100
