Lafite maakt Duhart Milon steeds beter. Deze wijngaard (76ha) is aangeplant met 67% Cabernet Sauvignon en 33% Merlot. Deze 2022 laat nu al in zijn kaarten kijken. Er is volume (véél) en lengte (véél) in al dat precies evenwicht. Het “mentholé” kantje is hemels en de tannine straalt. De fraîcheur combineert met een tonaliteit van zacht zadelleer... wat een heerlijke wijn. 78% Cabernet Sauvignon en 22% Merlot. 13,6%vol. IN DE PERS 94 William Kelley – The Wine Advocate - robertparker.com (Maart 2025) The 2022 Duhart-Milon is showing beautifully, bursting from the glass with aromas of mulberries, blackcurrants, pencil shavings and rose petal. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and textural, it's sweet and layered, with a gourmand core of fruit underpinned by powdery tannins and lively acids. A decade ago, Duhart could be a somewhat austere wine, but today it's much more integrated and harmonious. The 2022 is a blend of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon and 22% Merlot. Drink 2027-2050. 91-93 William Kelley – The Wine Advocate Issue 266 - robertparker.com (April 2023) The 2022 Duhart-Milon unwinds in the glass with aromas of dark berries, cedar box, loamy soil, herbs and spices, followed by a medium to full-bodied, supple and velvety palate with a broad attack that segues into a lively, nicely concentrated core of fruit, concluding with a youthfully firm finish. 94 Neal Martin – vinous.com (Januari 2025) The 2022 Duhart-Milon has a really wonderful bouquet driven by the higher proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon (78%), with pencil shaving aromas infusing the black fruit. This is quintessential Pauillac in style. The palate is medium-bodied, crisp and vibrant, with fine-boned tannins and an almost crunchy texture toward the saline finish. Beautifully balanced and poised, this sophisticated Duhart-Milon will age effortlessly over two or three decades. Drink 2030-2060. 93-95 Neal Martin – vinous.com (Mei 2023) The 2022 Duhart-Milon underwent a short 15- to 18-day maceration and is raised in 50% new oak and the rest one-year-old barrels. It has a very graphite/mint-scented nose that is Pauillac through and through. The palate is fresh and vibrant with fine tannins. This is beautifully sculpted with a vibrant pencil lead-tinged finish reminiscent of Grand Puy Lacoste. The 2022 is a fabulous Duhart-Milon that should give 30 to 40 years of drinking pleasure. It's a Pauillac a bit like the late Steven Spurrier insofar that it's a Pauillac always conservatively dressed in a pin-striped suit, but that's the essence of Duhart. Drink 2030-2060. 94 Antonio Galloni – vinous.com (Januari 2025) The 2022 Duhart-Millon is a big, rich wine. Ample and expansive on the palate, it has so much to offer. Cabernet Sauvignon takes center stage as dark-toned fruit, graphite and expressive savory nuances open with aeration. Huge swaths of creamy tannins wrap it all together, building to a substantial, explosive finish. The 2022 is an impressive Duhart. Drink 2028-2042. 92-94 Antonio Galloni – vinous.com (Mei 2023) The 2022 Duhart-Milon is racy and explosive right out of the gate. Ripe dark cherry, plum, cloves, licorice, menthol and mocha fill out the layers in a deep, wonderfully expressive Duhart. Firm tannins extend the finish nicely. I imagine the 2022 will require at least a few years in bottle to be at its best, but it is pretty showy today. The blend is 78% Cabernet Sauvignon and 22% Merlot. Drink 2027-2042. 90-92 Lisa Perrotti-Brown – thewineindependent.com (Mei 2023) Made from 78% Cabernet Sauvignon and 22% Merlot, the 2022 Duhart-Milon is deep garnet-purple in color. It rocks up with ready-to-impress notes of warm cassis, blackberry preserves, and menthol, followed by hints of cinnamon stick, rose oil, and fallen leaves. The medium-bodied palate is chock full of lively black berry and minty flavors, framed by grainy tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing long and lifted. 17/20 James Lawther – jancisrobinson.com (Mei 2023) 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot. Cask sample. Marked Cabernet nose – blackcurrant with a touch of mint. Big tannic base but with an opulence to the tannins. Long and persistent. Plenty of Pauillac power. 13.7%. Drink 2030– 2042. 95-96 James Suckling – jamessuckling.com (April 2023) Very Pauillac in its blackcurrant, dark chocolate and walnut husk character. Full-bodied yet compacted. Wet earth, mushroom, earth, black tobacco. Fine and intense tannins. Fresh and complex. 78% cabernet sauvignon and 22% merlot. 94 Jane Anson – janeanson.com (Mei 2023) Intense, stately, with ripe and spicy dark brambled fruit flavours, blackberry and cassis, balanced by grippy tannins, crushed rocks, slate and cigar, which add texture and moderation. The serious face of Duhart does well in the vintage, keeping an upright tannic backbone. New cellar at Duhart since 2020. Harvest August 31 to September 28, 3.8ph. Olivier Bonnau technical director. Duhart Milon vineyard is looking at lowering density of planting to guard against future hot vintages of this type. 94-96 Jeb Dunnuck – jebdunnuck.com (Mei 2023) The Grand Vin 2022 Château Duhart-Milon is 78% Cabernet Sauvignon and 22% Merlot. It brings more richness as well as classic Pauillac character in its lead pencil, graphite, tobacco, and red and black fruit-driven aromatics. With gorgeous richness, a medium to full bodied mouthfeel, and a great finish, this utterly classic, seamless, balanced Pauillac should be snatched up by readers. It's going to give the 2009 a run for its money. 94 Georgina Hindle – decanter.com (Mei 2023) Ripe fruit on the nose, cherries, blackcurrants and plums, fresh, open and inviting. Sleek and smooth, this is intense but juicy giving tannic strength, just shy of chewy but appealingly chalky and fleshy giving a mouthfilling texture while the stony, saline, spiced edge to the tannins and cool blueberry and mint give the freshness. The tannins stand out here, present and at the fore, but well textured, crushed velvet but juicy with high acidity and a sharpness that counters the clear power underneath. Ageing will incorporate 40% of new oak plus up to 15% of amphora based on current trials. Harvest 31 August to 28 September. 93-95 Ella Lister – lefigaro.fr (Mei 2023) 94-96 Jeff Leve – thewinecellarinsider.com (Mei 2023) Lead pencil, spice, red currants, flowers, and dark cherries crowd into the nose. On the palate, the wine is elegant, refined, soft, and pure. There is density along with vibrance, spice, lift, and width. The finish, with its blend of red fruits, cocoa, orange rind, spice, espresso, and plums lingers, which is a good things as you as much of this on your palate as possible. The wine is a blend of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon and 22% Merlot. 13.5% ABV, 3.9 pH. 95-96 Alexandre Ma – alexandrema.com (Mei 2023) Duhart MilonIn de stal van Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Château Lafite Rothschild) vinden we ook Duhart Milon. Domaines Barons de Rothschild kocht in 1962 17ha en bouwde uit tot 110ha gelegen ten Westen van Lafite op de Milon helling met een wijngaard van 75ha Quatrième Cru Classé. Dit broertje voor Lafite lijkt soms rebels en altijd robuust en eerlijk, maar wordt even zeer gekoesterd door Saskia de Rothschild en haar team. Vooral in recentere wijnjaren is deze Pauillac bijzonder verdienstelijk gebleken. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
