[Chateau Duhart Milon 1994]
Robert Parker rating: 92/100
Chateau Duhart Milon was classified as a Fourth Growth in 1855, and it is one of the few chateaus without a real castle. Its wine is actually produced in a large warehouse located on the outskirts of Pauillac, but the current quality of the wine is quite good.So in 1962, it was acquired by the neighboring Chateau Lafite-Rothschild (a first-growth estate).Chateau Lafite-Rothschild conducted a comprehensive cleanup of the vineyard, renovated the wine cellar, purchased advanced fermentation equipment, and reinstalled the drainage system. With the purchase of new plots and the active implementation of replanting plans, the area of the vineyard has significantly increased.Today, under the strict management of Chateau Lafite-Rothschild, it has gained widespread fame and received numerous accolades, also known as the Lafite Brothers.
Chateau Duhart Milon 2021 presents a medium ruby color.Fresh currant fruit aromas and a hint of plum create an elegant, classic Médoc bouquet.There are flavors of black pepper and green pepper, along with a hint of iris.The palate presents blackcurrant fruitiness and leafiness, along with clean, firm tannins.The notes of cedar and hedgerow create a delicious, slightly herbal flavor.Oak adds a touch of exoticism, but it is largely a cool, elegant style.The finish is delicate and balanced.
