Description

The 2019 Chateau Duhart Milon wine has clear depth of fruit, and above all clear Pauillac character. This feels strict and confident, with beautiful balance and restraint. Duhart is one of the later-ripening and cooler Pauillac terroirs which is why in the past it could be overly austere when young, but it is benefitting from recent hot summers in terms of its fruit ripeness. Pencil lead is prominent here, along with cassis and bilberry. Very precise, very elegant, with a creaminess to the fruit through the mid palate, and overall this is an excellent Duhart Milon wine.

In the heart of the Pauillac appellation, Chateau Duhart Milon is a perfect example of this appellation. This 4th Classified Growth of Pauillac was founded in the 18th century under the impetus of the Lafite family, who covered Pauillac with vines at that time.

The 2019 Chateau Duhart Milon wine is absolutely gorgeous. It has a blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Merlot.
