2018 Duhart-Milon Rothschild Pauillac Duhart-Milon Rothschild, Bordeaux

Vinous - 2018 Duhart-Milon Rothschild Pauillac, Duhart-Milon Rothschild

Just as it was from barrel, the 2018 Duhart-Milon is a real powerhouse. Black cherry, gravel, spice, espresso and savory herbs infuse the 2018 with notable depth and power. A brooding, virile wine, the Duhart-Milon packs a serious punch. I would give it a few years to soften. The 2018 has really come together since en primeur. In fact, the bottled wine bears little semblance to the en primeur sample, which is a very good thing. There is real density and weight here, with all of the natural richness of the year. - Antonio Galloni, März 2021
