"Chateau Desmirail is a third growth in the 1855 classification, which has an outstanding terroir bordering the Route des Chateaux. Jean Desmirail gave his name to the Chateau after marrying an heiress from the Rausan family in the late 17th century. The current owner and manager, Denis Lurton, took over from his father Lucien in 1992. A well balanced wine, with spicy notes, good length, not too powerful and charming. "
