Managed by the legendary winemaking team of neighboring First Growth Château Lafite Rothschild, Château Duhart-Milon reaches spectacular heights in the 2003 vintage.
The historically hot 2003 growing season yielded an atypically rich, opulent, and dense expression of Pauillac terroir. Rather than the strict, lean profile often associated with older vintages, the 2003 boasts exceptional fruit concentration, velvety textures, and magnificent power. Having rested for over two decades in pristine cellar conditions, this standard-bearer of the Left Bank is strutting with total majesty right now.
 
Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate – 94/100
"A spectacular wine... Strutting all of its nobility, richness and majesty, it boasts abundant notes of cedarwood, crème de cassis, licorice and a hint of lead pencil shavings. Full-bodied, rich, dense and fully mature... This beauty is a big-time sleeper of the vintage."
 
James Suckling – 93/100
"Spicy and gamey, but rich and wonderful on the nose. Full-bodied, with round and velvety tannins and a long, sweet tobacco and ripe fruit aftertaste. Decadent and yummy right now."
 
Wine Spectator – 92/100
"Blackberry with toasted oak and coffee aromas. Full-bodied, with chewy tannins and a long finish. Lovely texture to this wine. Dense and refined... One of the best I have tasted from this estate."
