Château FERRIÈRE
3ème grand cru classé

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. Awarded Best Winemaker of the Year 2024 by Revue du Vin de France, Claire Villars-Lurtonet has pushed her Margaux cru to the top. Bravo!

La Revue du Vin de France : 94-95/100 “With its unique character, Ferrière impresses with its refined texture and elegant expression. The velvety, silky Cabernets offer tannins of great precision. The vibrant, fresh finish elegantly rounds off this highly distinguished wine.”

Bettane+Desseauve : 93-94/100 “A marked improvement, it has gained in body, energy and precision. A particularly impressive development that could make it one of the best value-for-money wines in the appellation.”

Vinous (N. Martin): 91-93/100 “The 2025 Ferrière [...] has a delightful, well-defined bouquet with iris flower and subtle undergrowth scents, plenty of black fruit, yet it feels streamlined and focused. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, silky smooth in texture, a keen line of acidity and more minéralité on the finish compared to its Margaux “sibling”, La Gurgue. This is a delicious Margaux that will be approachable in its youth but will age in bottle. Just 12.7% alcohol here."

Vinous (A. Galloni): 90-92/100 “The 2025 Ferrière is laced with dark blueberry fruit, crème de cassis, lavender, menthol and licorice. Inky and unctuous in feel, with striking mid-palate sweetness, the 2025 is a total charmer. [...] Firm chocolatey tannins support the finish. There's a lot of substance here, and good potential too.”
