17 Rene Gabriel
Extrem dunkles Weinrot mit schwarzen und violetten Reflexen. Die Farbe ist tiefer als jene vom Lafite! Extrem tiefgründig, Trüffelnoten, Rauch, Korinthen, Lakritze, eine trockene, schwarzbeerige Frucht zeigend, insgesamt aber mehr Tiefe als Frucht aufweisend. Königlicher Gaumen, fleischige und doch feine Tannine, sehr nachhaltig, im Finale Darjeeling- und Asssamteenoten, wie der Carruades eine gewisse Bitterkeit aufweisend, diese passt aber viel besser zum Duhart, weil sie die Gaumenstruktur ergänzt, tendiert zu maskulinem Charakter und verlangt viel Flaschenreife.<br/><br/>warten (2015 - 2030)

The 2006 Château Duhart-Milon displayed a comparatively muted nose that does not really escape from the glass, despite encouragement (somewhat typical of Duhart in its first ten years). The palate is gritty and hard with plenty of graphite infusing the broody black fruit at the moment, though the finish feels rather pinched. Give this another 2-3 years and plenty of decanting. Tasted April 2016.

Offers dried currant on the nose, with herbal undertones. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins and a medium finish. Best after 2013. 23,665 cases made. ?JS<br/>

Good full medium red. Aromas of plum, smoked meat, iron and rose. Supple and broad, with a restrained sweetness to the flavors of plum, smoke and meat. Seems to gain in sweetness toward the back, finishing with good breadth and length.

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.
