Duhart Milon Rothschild 2025 (750ML)

92-94 Points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous: "The 2025 Duhart-Milon offers a captivating mix of brilliant red-toned fruit, blood orange, pomegranate and wild flowers. Readers will find a Duhart that bristles with energy. The purity of the flavors is just captivating. It's one of my favorite recent vintages here because of its vibrancy and textural finesse. The blend is 73% Cabernet Sauvignon and 27% Merlot, picked from early to mid-September, always a few days later than at Lafite." 04/26

93-95 Points, William Kelley, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "A blend of 73% Cabernet Sauvignon and 27% Merlot, the 2025 Duhart-Milon is a lovely classic in the making, offering up notes of wild blueberries, cassis, rose petals and orange zest, followed by a medium- to full-bodied, pure and polished palate that's lively, harmonious and suave. It checks in at a modest 12.5% alcohol." 04/26

95 Points, Georgina Hindle, Decanter: "Fragrant blackcurrants and dried herbs on the nose. Really succulent and grippy straight away, immediately so charming and soft, almost creamy with a touch of powdery tannins – but such depth and concentration of fruit – ripe but still cool, you get flesh but freshness too. Such great construction – nothing over the top. There’s fleshy tannins, round mouthfeel but such elegance and refinement with the vein of bright, tangy, driving acidity that just carries the overall expression. So long. Brilliant. 13% press wine." 03/26

94 Points, Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux: "Fragrant and floral on the opening, with chalky tannins and a gorgeous lift through the palate, showing crayon, raspberry, cassis and cherry pit. There is a delicacy and finesse evident in this Duhart, very pretty, with a less powerful structure than the 2022 vintage. 3.77ph. 27hl/h yields. Rain in this part of Pauillac saw 80mm over Easter then nothing until 25mm on June 22, and 30mm end of July, so two very important moments to counter the heatwave. Then temperatures cooled until August 11-15 before spikes of real heat, 40+C, until the summer broke at the end of August with 55mm of rain, then another 60mm up until the harvest. Harvest started September 2, same as in 2022." 04/26

95-96 Points, James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com: "A juicy and savory red with blackberry, chocolate, dried meat and earth aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied with plenty of flavor and a forest floor aftertaste. Ripe tannins. A blend of 73% cabernet sauvignon and 27% merlot." 04/26
