Chateau Duhart-Milon Blanc 2021

$11499

A relatively new release from the Lafite-owned Pauillac estate, this is one of the rare whites to emerge from a famous Left Bank red-wine chateau. Because Pauillac AOC permits only reds, the wine is bottled as Bordeaux Blanc - a Semillon-led blend with Sauvignon Blanc, made with the same Domaines Barons de Rothschild precision behind the celebrated Duhart-Milon Pauillac. Fresh, mineral, and quietly serious. A curiosity worth knowing about.

"The 2021 Le Blanc de Duhart-Milon is a Sémillon-dominant blend produced from vines in the Anseilan sector that have been grafted over to white production. Unwinding in the glass with a gently reductive bouquet of gooseberry, citrus zest and wheat toast, it's medium to full-bodied, pure and racy, with a satiny attack, chalky structuring extract and a mouthwateringly mordant finish. It's refreshing to see Sémillon accorded the respect it deserves." —William Kelley

"Grassy, lemon yellow gold in the glass. A herbal and white stone fruited nose, ginger, flowers, apricot, melon, orange, lime and some green fruits. Bright and energising, lovely fresh acidity hits straight away - a sherbet-esque flavour but with a honeyed, toasted note too from the Semillon really giving different flavours and textures right now. Feels serious in the honeyed, waxy lemon, toast, buttery caramel but the acidity underneath is so great. A lovely potential for this. Ends chalky, flinty and clean, a gorgeous mineral grip. Succulent, fun, fresh, juicy and layered. I like this a lot. Interesting to see this project progress."
