In the heart of the vineyards of the Margaux appellation, Château Desmirail is a Bordeaux wine estate in the Margaux appellation, which extends over 40 hectares, and whose great wine is 3rd Grand Cru Classé in the 1855 classification.

On the exceptional gravel soils of the vineyard, the grape varieties are composed of Cabernet Sauvignon (70%), Merlot (29%), and Petit Verdot (1%). The wine buildings of Desmirail date from the end of the 19th century and house 3 vats: an old Médoc vat room using natural gravity which dates from this period, a framework in the shape of an inverted boat hull, set on cast iron pillars, with four oak barrels, a stainless steel vat room dating from 1997 and a vat room created in 2010 where the oak vats are reserved for the vinification of the oldest plots.

Château Desmirail was founded at the end of the 17th century by Jean Desmirail, a lawyer at the Parliament of Bordeaux, and remained in the family until the middle of the 19th century. The property then passed through the hands of Robert de Mendelssohn, nephew of the famous composer, then Martial Michel, industrialist from the North of France. Modern history begins in 1980 when Lucien Lurton acquired it. Today, he has been succeeded by his son Denis Lurton, who continues to develop and modernise the estate.
