Château Duhart-Milon, Pauillac

Château Duhart-Milon, Pauillac - 2015

750 mL
Item # 13731

An unbelievable Pauillac and an undiscovered original. This vintage shows broad-boned structure and fresh ripe plums on the palate. Tobacco and graphite present against grippy tannins. Drinking well now with a good decant. Duhart-Milon was acquired by its neighbor, Lafite-Rothschild in 1962, who undertook a massive restoration project in this historic estate. Since then, the quality makes this an unsung second wine of Lafite. This earthy, structured Cabernet dominant-blend is matured in barrels crafted by Lafite-Rothschild's coopers. Duhart-Milon was classified as a 4th Growth in 1855.

The result of an illicit affair a hundred-odd years ago between Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon today enjoys more worldwide popularity than both of its parents combined. It is the principal grape of Bordeaux, and as such has rightly earned its place among the greatest and most long-lived wines of the Old World; of course, it is also the most heralded grape of California, positioning it at the forefront of the New World wine scene as well. Today, Cabernet Sauvignon has a...
