Chateau Duhart Milon 2005

Description:

Chateau Duhart Milon 2005
Pauillac, 4eme Cru Classe
"The finest Duhart-Milon ever made? This structured, tannic, dense ruby/purple-tinged Pauillac offers up hints of cassis, licorice, chocolate, and earth. Medium to full-bodied with good purity, strong tannins, and undeniable elegance, it reveals a character not dissimilar from its renowned sibling, Lafite-Rothschild. A blend of 71% Cabernet Sauvignon and 29% Merlot, it is unquestionably outstanding, but to my taste, slightly less opulent than the estate's ethereal 2003." R. Parker, 94 pts. 04/08
12 bottles (owc)
Estimate $900-1,300
