Château Duhart-Milon 1988 - a Pauillac Fourth Cru Classé
Taste this powerful, elegant red wine from an exceptional vintage.
The 1988 Bordeaux vintage was marked by a mild, wet winter followed by a hot, dry spring and summer, with well-distributed rainfall. These exceptional conditions enabled the grapes to reach optimum ripeness, producing wines of great richness and complexity.
Château Duhart-Milon 1988 is a perfect example of the exceptional quality of this vintage. Made from a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, this wine is distinguished by its intense garnet-red color with tiled highlights. The nose is complex and enchanting, with aromas of red and black fruits, cedar, tobacco and mocha. On the palate, the wine is powerful and elegant, with good acidity and a silky tannic structure. Flavors of fruit and spice combine with notes of mocha and dark chocolate for a long, persistent finish.
