Chateau Duhart-Milon

Case Format: 75cl

Max score: 93

Drink To: 2022-2045

Château Duhart Milon’s first wine is often seen as a “model” of Pauillac, respected for its robust character and intense colour, with an aroma akin to rich sap. Run by Domaines Barons de Rothschild of Château Lafite Rothschild fame, Duhart Milon refuses to be overshadowed by its illustrious counterpart, and creates superb wines that enables the estate to stand out on the map. Its 76-hectare vineyard is composed of Merlot (33%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (67%) which are then aged for 14 months in 50% new oak barrels. Château Duhart Milon is usually best after about 8-12 years of bottle ageing.

Neal Martin

The 2016 Duhart-Milon has a pure, well-defined bouquet of blackberry, briar and crushed stone aromas, all very focused and penetrating. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin and perhaps more approachable than the Duharts of the past, more malleable in the mouth. Quite rich in style considering the property in question, yet there is wonderful salinity toward the caressing finish. Excellent. 13% alcohol.

Lisa Perrotti-Brown

Blended of 67% Cabernet Sauvignon and 33% Merlot, the 2016 Duhart-Milon has a deep garnet-purple color and features plums preserves, wild blueberries and cassis scents with touches of violets and underbrush with a waft of tobacco. Medium-bodied and elegant, with a backbone of finely grained tannins and oodles of freshness, it has a great core of perfumed black fruit, finishing on an earthy note.

Tasted blind. Polished, sweet, hugely appealing. Sweet and not the most refreshing. Rather chunky.
