Description
// Blend: 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Merlot //
"Château Duhart-Milon’s grand vin is often described as a model of the Pauillac appellation. The broker Guillaume Lawton noted as early as 1815 that “it is very robust, with a fine color, and quite pronounced sappiness” (he describes the “sappiness” of the Médoc’s premiers crus as “something like the odor given off by finest sealing wax when it is burned”)." - Winemaker Notes
"The most underrated wine in the Lafite stable these days has put in another strong performance with the 2020 Duhart-Milon, as this somewhat cooler, later-ripening site is well adapted to warmer vintages. Unfurling to reveal aromas of cassis, plums, cigar wrapper, loamy soil and violets, it's medium to full-bodied, broad and layered, with polished tannins, terrific depth at the core and a long, sapid finish." - 94 Points, William Kelley
