Incorporating fully 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2021 Duhart-Milon unwinds in the glass with aromas of sweet berries, cigar wrapper and pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, lively and persuasively concentrated, with beautifully refined tannins and a long, penetrating finish, it's a classy, serious wine that reflects all the progress this estate has been making over the last decade.<br/>
Producer
Château Duhart Milon
erhaps the most impressionable estate in the appellation, the 4ème Grand Cru Classé, Château Duhart-Milon can be recognized by their recent renascence. In the early 18th century, the Pauillac region began a widespread grape cultivation, eventually producing Château Lafite’s second wine, Château Duhart-Milon. Centuries and various owners later, Château Duhart-Milon has landed back in the hands of the Rothschild family. From the 1960s under the leadership of the Rothschild family, the château has gone through a major resurgence and quality has returned to their Fourth Growth status. Producing model Pauillac wines year after year, the estate’s largest single plot remains on the Milon hillside, just west of the similarly owned, Château Lafite Rothschild on the Carruades plateau. Today, the estate produces two traditional wines with the same care and attention as those of Lafite. The reliable Grand Vin, Château Duhart-Milon is produced along with their second wine, Moulin de Duhart, which has been crafted from their younger vineyards.
