2022 Chateau DuHart-Milon 'Moulin de Duhart' Pauillac 750ml

In 1962 Domaines Barons de Rothschild Lafite acquired Château Duhart Milon in Pauillac, taking over a property whose name recalls Sieur Duhart, a Louis XV era privateer whose house on the port inspired the label. The estate’s history as a source of Lafite’s wines stretches back to the 18th century, and in 1855 it became the only Fourth Growth in Pauillac.

Today the vineyard covers 188 acres in a near single block on the Milon hillside west of Château Lafite Rothschild, on sandy gravel with pockets of clay over limestone. Technical director Eric Kohler oversees the cellar and vines, and the team produces a second wine, Moulin de Duhart, generally from younger vines and with shorter aging than the grand vin. The château joined the B Corp community in December 2023, part of broader work on a more efficient winery and agro environmental development.
