Known for producing one of the firmest and tightest (even robust) Pauillacs available, Duhart-Milon has since 2010 refined its style to gradually approach that of Lafite (same owner and same team). New direction and progress amply confirmed in 2015 and 2016, with an unprecedented charm and fatness. Given the quality of its terroir (the only 4th Grand Cru Classé in Pauillac), Duhart-Milon has certainly not finished its progression.
Rated 95/100 by La Revue du Vin de France : « Il est à la fois sérieux et délié comme il le faut, avec un côté très racé. Son équilibre très digeste est remarquable, il termine sur des tanins racés au toucher de soie, avec une pointe mentholée. »

The 2020 vintage is rated 95/100 by La Revue du Vin de France "It is both serious and well-balanced, with a very racy side. It is remarkably well-balanced and easy to digest, finishing with racy, silky tannins and a hint of menthol." (September 2023)
Rated 94/100 by Jean-Marc Quarin "Dark, intense and beautiful colour. Very aromatic, fruity, creamy and slightly truffled nose. Meticulous on the palate, refined to the touch, very aromatic, the wine develops with a graceful overall bearing. It melts on the finish, fragrant, long, sappy and very good". (March 2023).
