Lot #497. Duhart-Milon Rothschild 2006

Description: Consists of 2 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 92 RP.
"It is no longer an insider’s secret that the investments made by the Rothschild family (of Lafite) in Duhart Milon are paying big dividends. A shrewd Pauillac lover’s delight, it possesses exceptional quality, yet the price remains fair. This blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Merlot, only 50% made it into the final blend, displays some of Lafite’s classic notes of lead pencil shavings, cedar, and black currants along with more earthy, roasted herb, and spice box characteristics. Rich, full-bodied, dense, and already approachable, it should evolve easily for two decades. Good value." Wine Advocate #181, Feb 2009
Provenance: The Sea Cliff Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $100
