Chateau Duhart-Milon - Pauillac - 4ème Grand Cru Classé | French Red Wine , CHATEAU2011

Intense color with hints of purple. Initially characterized by woodiness, the nose then presents a beautiful expression of red fruit, tobacco and spicy notes. Elegant and fresh on the palate. Fine structure, density and length with a complex fruity finish.

"Virtually opaque purple red. Aromas are rich & meaty with cedar notes. The palate has quite aggressive drying tannins, there is certainly plenty of cedary grip on the mid-palate. Excellent, fresh acidity allows cassis & damson fruit to reveal themselves on the long finish. Alcohol is balanced." - 4/12 DCAMW
