Château Duhart-Milon 2024

"The wine has a fine, delicate nose with notes of crunchy red fruit, vanilla and toast. On the palate, the attack is fresh and supple, carried by finely chiselled tannins. The mid-palate is well-balanced, with deliciously fruity aromas. The long, sapid finish, with a crunchy redcurrant note, suggests good ageing potential." - Marie, Oenologue Premium Grands Crus

The Strait of Magellan or Duhart-Milon 2024
Navigating the Straits of Magellan requires skill, but above all, daring!
Crossed for the first time in 1520 by the man who gave it its name, this maritime passage has always left its mark due to its narrowness and inhospitable currents. This was no insurmountable challenge for Captain Duhart, who set out in 2024 to cross it from east to west, zigzagging between the clouds.
On September 2, the crew entered the Strait and began the harvest with our white grapes, in the most easterly of Duhart's plots. Then it's time to be patient... The red grapes taste good, but you have to wait, and once again read the weather forecast with finesse to prepare to cut on the right days.
On September 24, we began harvesting our red grapes from our youngest Merlot plots. We cut and stopped until October 8, when we finished with our Montgrand plots, which are the furthest west of Domaine.
That's it, we've reached the Pacific!
