2024 Château Duhart Milon Blanc

James Suckling - 93-94

Bright and zesty, with fine cream, green guavas and gooseberries. Bright, sharp and crisp, with a medium body and a long, expressive finish. A hint of salinity comes through with creaminess at the end. 62% semillon, 35% sauvignon blanc and 3% sauvignon gris.

Vinous - 90-92

The 2024 Le Blanc du Duhart is a very pretty Sémillon-driven white. Orchard fruit, slate, mint, chalk and white pepper lend a good deal of energy throughout. The 2024 is open-knit and quite gracious in style. I imagine the Blanc will become an even more complex and serious wine as the team gains experience with making white wine in the Médoc.

Robert Parker - 90-92

The 2024 Le Blanc de Duhart-Milon opens with lifted aromas of boxwood, pear and white peach, intertwined with delicate floral nuances. Medium-bodied, lively and tense, it is driven by tangy acidity and a juicy core of fruit, likely enhanced by the malolactic fermentation undergone by 50% of the production. This is a blend of 62% Sémillon, 35% Sauvignon Blanc and 3% Sauvignon Gris.

Decanter - 92

Subtle elderflower aromas on the nose with green apple, peach and fresh yellow fruit, lovely aromas. Racy and alive, this zings on the palate, gorgeous juicy acidity with a citrus punch - lemon, lime and bitter pineapple. Long length and a touch of creaminess towards the finish - the malolactic kicking in and (the first time used on 50% of the grapes, mainly Semillon). So moreish and really refreshing but still with plenty of flavour and a bitter orange touch on the finish. 3.15pH.
