Located in the Pauillac appellation of Bordeaux, Château Duhart-Milon is a Fourth Growth property owned by Domaines Barons de Rothschild [Lafite], also known as the Rothschild family. The vineyards span over 76 hectares and are primarily planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, along with Merlot. The terroir of the estate consists of deep gravelly soils, similar to its prestigious neighbour, Château Lafite Rothschild. The 2009 vintage of Château Duhart-Milon is considered to be an outstanding year for the estate. It was a highly regarded vintage in Bordeaux, known for producing wines of exceptional quality and aging potential.

Vinous
The 2009 Duhart-Milon is recalcitrant on the nose, refusing to give much away in terms of aromas. Loamy, peaty scents emerge with time amongst the black fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannin, fresh in the mouth with good salinity. There is something estuarine about this Pauillac that lends it personality and its grip on the finish suggesting that it will give many more years of drinking pleasure. This has long been an impressive Duhart-Milon and so it is proven here. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners’ 2009 Bordeaux tasting. Neal Martin1st March 2019
