Blanc de Duhart Milon 2024 (750ML)

90-92 Points, Yohan Castaing, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "The 2024 Le Blanc de Duhart-Milon opens with lifted aromas of boxwood, pear and white peach, intertwined with delicate floral nuances. Medium-bodied, lively and tense, it is driven by tangy acidity and a juicy core of fruit, likely enhanced by the malolactic fermentation undergone by 50% of the production. This is a blend of 62% Sémillon, 35% Sauvignon Blanc and 3% Sauvignon Gris." 04/25

92 Points, Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux: "Olivier Boullon (sp??) takes lead in the white wines. First time in the five years of Duhart Blanc that they did some malolactic on around 50% of the lots, mainly on the Sémillon. Fragrant and gripping, white peach, white pear, great length, get some kiwi notes even, harvest September 10 to 20, passing six times through the vineyard. Aged entirely in oak, 50% new., 3.15ph." 04/25

90-92 Points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous: "The 2024 Le Blanc du Duhart is a very pretty Sémillon-driven white. Orchard fruit, slate, mint, chalk and white pepper lend a good deal of energy throughout. The 2024 is open-knit and quite gracious in style. I imagine the Blanc will become an even more complex and serious wine as the team gains experience with making white wine in the Médoc." 04/25

92-94 Points, Neal Martin, Vinous: "The 2024 Le Blanc de Duhart-Milon, which debuted with the 2021 vintage, comes from 1.5 hectares of regrafted vines plus new plantings toward the east of Lafite-Rothschild on clay-limestone soils. Half of the malolactic conversion was done in barrel to gain volume with a low pH. At the moment, it aged in 50% used and 50% new barrels, although Eric Kohler mentioned that stainless steel may come online in the future. It has a clean and precise bouquet, with Anjou pear commingling with lime, nettle and hints of peach skin emerging with time. The palate is fresh and tensile, more than any previous vintages. This is not long, yet it is armed with plenty of energy. The limestone is more exposed in this vintage and I am intrigued to see how this ages in bottle." 04/25

92-94 Pointes, Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com: "The 2024 Château Duhart-Milon Blanc is mostly Semillon with 35% Sauvignon Blanc and 3% Sauvignon Gris. Juicy citrus, pineapple, and minty flowers, as well as a kiss of salinity, all emerge from this juicy, medium-bodied white that has nicely integrated acidity and outstanding length. As you would assume with this estate, it's impeccably made and will easily be an outstanding white that will be versatile on the dinner table." 05/25

92-94 Points, Lisa Perrotti-Brown, The Wine Independent: "Sings of fresh limes, green apples, and sea spray, plus nuances of chopped herbs and chalk dust. The light-bodied palate is crisp and vibrant with electric citrus flavors and a suggestion of silkiness to the texture, finishing long and chalky." 05/25
