Robert Parker rating: 94/100
James Suckling rating: 92/100
Chateau Duhart Milon was classified as a Fourth Growth in 1855, and it is one of the few estates without a true 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 acquisition 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.
"The 2008 Duhart Milon is an excellent choice for that vintage, a wine for the budget-conscious consumer, as the price has not yet reflected its qualitative potential."Surprisingly exhibits a wonderful texture, with plenty of blackcurrant, licorice, unsmoked cigar smoke, and earthy flavors, a rich mouthfeel, and astonishing purity and density."Enjoy this first-class 2008 for the next 20-25 years."─Robert Parker
