Vinous

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. The blend is 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, 6% Petit Verdot and 4% Cabernet Franc, including all 6 hectares of old-vine Merlot. Yields were just 25 hectoliters per hectare. Firm chocolatey tannins support the finish. There's a lot of substance here, and good potential too. 04/2026

The 2025 Ferrière was picked from 5 to 19 September, and this year includes a slightly higher percentage of Petit Verdot. It is matured in 35% new barrels and 30% in ovoid concrete tanks/amphora. This 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. 05/2026

A refined texture, with red currants, cherries and bark on a medium body with fine and caressing tannins and a long, bright finish. Firm and crunchy at the end. A blend of 66% cabernet sauvignon, 24% merlot, 6% petit verdot and 4% cabernet franc. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. 04/2026
