Château Duhart Milon Pauillac Cabernet Sauvignon - Merlot Blend 2011

Ratings on Delectable

Sipping Fine Wine Delectable Pro

Ruby with garnet edges. A blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Merlot. Dark ripe berry aromas and spice. On the palate blackberry and cherry flavors with toasty herb spice, fine tannins, full body on long finish ending with developing fruit, oak and spice. Great now. Should continue to benefit with cellar time.

Masterclass in San Francisco with Saskia De Rothschild, Chairwoman DBR Lafite. Duhart-Milton is another property the Rothschild own. 2011 Château Duhart is a blend of 75% Cab & 25% Merlot. The nose reveals, beautiful, ripe & slightly stewed fruits of; blackberries, dark cherries, dark plum skin, lean black raspberries & some blueberries, baking soda, steeped black tea, black licorice notes, limestone minerals, dark turned earth, hints of sage, light caramel & milk chocolate, touch of spice, tobacco, leather, crushed rocks and red, dark fresh & withering florals. The body is not quite full. Showing a bit austere from the difficult vintage. The wine starts juicy and finishes dry. Blackberries, dark cherries, dark plum skin, lean black raspberries & some blueberries, baking soda, steeped black tea, black licorice notes, limestone minerals, dark turned earth, hints of sage, light caramel & milk chocolate, touch of spice, tobacco, leather, crushed rocks and red, dark fresh & withering florals. The acidity is good. The finish is still earth dominate but shows some more juiciness as it lingers. Dry wine meant to be enjoyed inside 15 years due to the difficult vintage. All wines arrived weeks ago directly from the Chateau. Photos of, the Crown Room at the Fairmont where the our class was held, tasting set up, our double decanters and amazing vista of San Francisco with the Transamerica Building.

Delicious. 75/25 CS Merlot. Super meaty and Olivey, almost Syrah like. Muscle and pepper, like a bicep. Also lovely and light with good grip and nice length. Licorice finish. At Lafite Master Class with Charles Chevalier of LR.

Tastes good, but does not show the tension, transparency, lively magic and uniqueness that separate the greats from merely good ones.

Drank with meat courses from the Living Kitchen Plucking, Picking, Cutting wine dinner (Depew, OK). 6/24/17. Good dark fruit - blackberry, blueberry, etc. Smooth and tasty. Especially good with the pork jowl confit, and the grilled sirloin dishes. Younger than most Duhart's I've had but very good.
