Château Duhart-Milon (Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite)) Pauillac 4. Cru Classé 2020 i trækasse

Decanter

Suave, elegant and calmly confident. A masterclass in high-definition winemaking where all the elements are presented harmoniously with structure, freshness, complexity and a wide expansive finish. Tannins are well integrated giving support to the shining black Cabernet fruit that has strength, power and concentration but delivered underneath the savoury salinity, liquorice spice and minerality. There’s something very special about this. I love the sense of discretion, a wine that knows it has star quality but it’s not shouting about it. Pure and poised - incredibly inviting! A great buy.

Alexandre Ma

La Revue du Vin de France

Duhart is both serious and relaxed as it should be, with a very racy side. Its very digestible balance is remarkable, it finishes on racy tannins with a silky touch, with a mentholated hint. A wine that will evolve gracefully over at least two decades

Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux

Wine Enthusiast

This ripe wine has some serious tannins and rich black fruits. Behind the structure, a swath of black fruits gives the wine concentration and ripeness.

Falstaff

Strong ruby garnet, purple reflections, subtle ochre rim brightening. Ripe plums, blackberry confit, candied orange zest, some nougat, inviting bouquet. Juicy, elegant, fine cherries, chocolatey texture, fine tannins, balanced, mineral and clingy, fine salty nuances on the finish, certain ageing potential.

Le Figaro Vin

James Suckling

This is so refined with beautiful currant, berry and some subtle chocolate and coffee. It’s full and very subtle with fine tannins that have a long finish. Such purity and finesse with structure. Fresh and savory. 72% cabernet sauvignon and 28% merlot.

The 2020 Château Duhart-Milon is a much more concentrated, serious wine. Based on 72% Cabernet Sauvignon and 28% Merlot hitting 12.5% natural alcohol, with a pH of 3.91, its deep ruby/plum color is followed by medium to full-bodied aromas and flavors of darker currants, cherries, damp earth, ripe tobacco, and graphite. Beautifully balanced, elegant, and straight-up seamless, it shows the classic, focused style of the vintage and will be a modern day classic from this terroir.
