2014 Château Duhart-Milon, Pauillac, Bordeaux

Description

Engaging aromatics make this wine immediately attractive in the nose. The perfume is lovely and floral, with hints of violet and creamy raspberry. The wine is a glorious deep purple, instantly appealing in the glass, and doesn't disappoint on the palate. The ripe, plummy fruit presents itself very well, but there is a sense of restraint here. This wine really plays to the strengths of the vintage with soft, juicy fruit dominating. This is not a big wine, although there is some weight – it is a lot like other 2014s in that respect – but satisfying, sweet fruit is present. This will be a joy to drink early. The finish is crisp and nicely refreshing.

About this wine

Chateau Duhart-Milon

Château Duhart Milon is a Pauillac estate owned by Domaines Barons de Rothschild that produces on average 28,000 cases of wine per year. The wine chais are located in Pauillac town and the property has a similar climate to that enjoyed by the Médoc: maritime, with the Gironde estuary and the Bay of Biscay combining to act as a climate regulator and the coastal pine forests sheltering the vines from the westerly and north-westerly winds.

Pauillac

The aristocrat of the Médoc boasts 75 percent of the region’s First Growths, with Grand Cru Classés representing 84 percent of production. Pauillac's First Growths each have their own unique characteristics: Ch. Lafite Rothschild produces the region’s most aromatically-complex and subtly-flavoured wine, while – with its high percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon – Ch. Mouton Rothschild can produce a decadently rich, fleshy and exotic wine.
