Château Duhart Milon Description
The Rothschild family acquired Château Duhart-Milon, a “Quatrièmes Cru” in the 1855 classification, from the Castejas of Pauillac, in 1962. The property was named after the Sieur of Duhart, gun-runner to Louis XIV, who originally owned the property, and from the name of the little hamlet of Milon which separates the Duhart-Milon vineyard from that of Château Lafite. Moulin de Duhart, Château Duhart-Milon’s second wine, is selected from vats of the “Grand Vin”. In general, the grapes are from the youngest part of the vineyard. Moulin de Duhart has several characteristics similar to the fine wine, but with a lesser potential for ageing as its ageing in barrels is much shorter.
Vinous: 90 Points
The 2020 Moulin du Duhart is a soft, supple wine that is a terrific introduction to the vintage. Plump and juicy, with no hard edges, the 2020 is an absolute delight. I would prefer to drink it over the next handful of years, while the fruit remains vibrant. It's a joyous 2020 that isn't trying to be something it can't be.
