Producer Information

Chteau Desmirail is a Bordeaux producer on the left bank of the Gironde estuary, known for its Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant blends. It is based in the Margaux appellation and was designated a Third Growth in the 1855 classification of the Mdoc and Graves. The property was founded by and named for Jean Desmirail who established the estate towards the end of the 17th Century. Several years before the 1855 classification, Desmirail was bought by Thophile Sipire, then the manager at Chteau Margaux. Sipire is attributed with elevating Desmirail to its third growth status, while Margaux was named a first growth. The modern Desmirail property is owned by Denis Lurton of the Lurton family, who own a number of wine estates including Chteau Climens.
