Duhart-Milon Pauillac 2025 Pre-Arrival

95–96 Points – James Suckling
“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.”

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. There’s fleshy tannins, a round mouthfeel, but such elegance and refinement with a vein of bright, tangy acidity that carries the wine beautifully. Brilliant.”

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.”

93–95 Points – William Kelley, 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.”

93–95 Points – Antonio Galloni, Vinous
“The 2025 Duhart-Milon is a classy, polished Pauillac. Medium in body and impeccably balanced, with fine tannins and notable energy, the wine impresses with its purity and persistence.”

93–95 Points – Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider
“Cigar wrappers, black currants, with tobacco leaf, licorice, and mint aromatics pop in the nose. The medium-bodied palate is lively, fresh, juicy, and most importantly pure. The fruits are soft, elegant, and refined from start to finish, where you enjoy its wealth of cassis, chocolate, and gentle touch of mint.”
