4th Grand Cru Classé in 1855
Secure packaging and transport insurance
Located in the heart of the Pauillac vineyard, Château Duhart-Milon owes its creation to a privateer under Louis XV who retired to the town's port and was named Sieur Duhart. From the 18th century onwards, Milon's wines served as an annuity for the seigneur de Lafite and was at the time considered a Second vin.
The Château Duhart-Milon would be named Quatrième Grand Cru Classé in the famous 1855 classification for the Paris Universal Exhibition.
In 1962, it was acquired by the Domaines Baron de Rothschild who were at the helm of its illustrious neighbor, Château Lafite Rothschild.
The Château Duhart-Milon watches over a 75-hectare vineyard situated on fine gravel soils with a limestone subsoil. The grape varieties are 67% Cabernet Sauvignon and 33% Merlot. The wines are aged for 14 months in French oak barrels, 50% of which are new.
The estate produces a Second wine, Moulin de Duhart.
The wines of Château Duhart-Milon are finely structured, offering plenty of concentration and freshness while letting beautiful fruity and spicy notes express themselves.
A great Bordeaux Pauillac born under very favorable climatic conditions in 2012 with a very healthy and splendid harvest and fruit.
The color is dark ruby
Numerous layers of red fruits from the black cherry of Navarre to the blackcurrant harmoniously mixed with tight tannins on a woody vanilla finish. The mouth is round and ample to finish on a touch of cocoa of the Antilles.
To be decanted between 4 and 6 hours before serving to let it express its many qualities for the pleasure of your guests.
A wine to be kept for many more years, with a probable qualitative asymptote in 2030. To be kept in a bottle cellar, sheltered from light and noise, with a hygrometric degree of about 70%.
