Château Duhart-Milon - Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite)

A Château in spirit, Duhart-Milon celebrates the unique know-how of Men who know how to deal with nature, whatever its state, and make the most of it. A know-how that is passed on from generation to generation and leaves the mark of time.

The soil of Duhart-Milon has been in the making for thousands of years under the influence of the Gironde, the estuary that shapes these lands. Time has done its work on its layers of crumpled limestone and water-splashed notched cliffs.

It has carved out the furrows where alluvium and clay particles meet, so that a few metres away, the expanses of fine gravel and aeolian sands form the Milon hillside… Then the vineyard was planted and thrived, under the careful watch of many sets of eyes.

The Duhart-Milon grape is not docile, but some have learned to understand it, over the years and with the advice of their elders. Generations of winegrowers have succeeded one another on this honest and generous land from which great wines are sourced.
