2014 Chateau Duhart-Milon 4. Cru
France / Bordeaux / Medoc / Haut-Medoc / Pauillac 4. Cru Rouge
1995 Château Duhart-Milon 4. Cru has a beautiful, dense, garnet color. Fruits are accompanied by leather and vegetal aromas. Very well balanced on the palate, this wine reveals a strong character with fine tannins ending with a long finish.
Wine Enthusiast tasting notes 93/100 (2017): "This is a structured wine that still has serious layers of ripe fruit and rich tannins. The black currant from the Cabernet Sauvignon is balanced by the jammy richness of the delicious Merlot. It's an impressive wine that continues the progress of this estate, owned by Lafite-Rothschild. Drink from 2024".
The Wine Cellar Insider/Jeff Leve tasting notes 92/100 (2017): "Tobacco, cedar, cassis, and lead pencil on the nose. The medium bodied wine is fresh, lively, with a blend of black cherry and cassis with an energetic, spicy, lively, finish. Give it at least 8 more years to come around. Plus, for some odd reason, there was a huge infestation of grape eating snails that loved eating the Cabernet Sauvignon, which has added more fatness to the wine".
Blend:
80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot.
