2021 Château Duhart-Milon, Pauillac, Bordeaux

Description

Cabernet Sauvignon 81%, Merlot 19%

This 76-hectare Fourth Growth lies adjacent to its sibling Château Lafite Rothschild, on slightly cooler, finer gravel soils. There are concentrated, lightly spiced dark fruits on the nose – blackcurrants, blackberries, even a little blackberry coulis, and a touch of liquorice freshness. This feels serious yet complete, with refined intensity, silky tannins and a graphite mineral note to the core. Organic conversion is underway here.

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.
