Château Duhart-Milon
Pauillac - 4ème Grand Cru Classé
Description
In Pauillac, Chateau Duhart-Milon gives pride of place to two typical grape varieties of the region: Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The vines draw all their nutrients from the fine gravel soils coupled with sand that rest on limestone bedrock.
Harvested by hand and carefully vinified in the traditional manner, the beautiful grapes produce a wine which, after having been aged for more than a year in oak barrels (50% new wood), is dense, deep and framed by beautiful tannins which soften wonderfully over time.
The iDealwine Primeurs tasting: “The wines of Duhart Milon, from a fresh terroir, which has fully revealed its potential in 2022. They are aged in 50% new barrels, almost 50% one-wine barrels, supplemented by amphorae. Fresh nose, marked by the right maturity of the fruit. In the mouth the texture is velvety, the tannins silky and well integrated, the whole intensely fruity. The finish, peppery, has a nice balance. “
