Chateau Duhart Milon 2016

75cl / 132.5%

“I remember how delicious this was at en primeur, and it remains a stately, elongated, perfectly poised Pauillac.

It’s austere, certainly, but is also full of rich fruit pared down by a slate texture, the sense of minerality scraping along the palate as you approach the blackcurrant leaf and tobacco finish.

It’s excellent quality, and clearly a vintage that suits the personality of Duhart – juicy but restrained. Drinking Window 2024 – 2040.”

History of Chateau Duhart Milon

Château Duhart-Milon, previously also Château Duhart-Milon-Rothschild, is a winery in the Pauillac appellation of the Bordeaux region of France. The wine produced here was classified as one of ten Quatrièmes Crus Classés (Fourth Growths) in the historic Bordeaux Wine Official Classification of 1855. The Château has 175 acres planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. The Château produces a second wine under the label Moulin de Duhart. The property has been managed since 1962 by a single team that, due to the proximity of the two properties, oversees both Château Lafite Rothschild and Château Duhart-Milon. Eric Kohler, Technical Director of the Château Lafite Rothschild and Château Duhart-Milon, is assisted by Oenologist and Winemaker Christophe Congé, and Vineyard Manager Louis Caillard.

Both Châteaux use the same traditional techniques based on strict control of yields, harvesting by hand, and numerous manual tasks throughout the year. Today, the new vines are all mature, and the renovation of the cellar adds a finishing touch to a remarkable 40-year effort.
