CRITIC REVIEWS
Neal Martin
The 2016 Duhart-Milon has a very perfumed, floral, almost Margaux-like bouquet that blossoms in the glass, veins of blue fruit coming through with time. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, a fine thread of acidity, quite linear and focused, with a dash of black pepper and graphite towards the finish. Real class and sensuality here. Tasted blind at the Southwold 10-Year-On tasting.

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. Lustrous crimson. Vegy note on the nose. Fairly sweet, toasty and flattering. Come-hither character. But maybe not for the very long term. Not that fresh on the finish. (JR)
