2005 Château Duhart-Milon, Pauillac, Bordeaux []

With 71% Cabernet Sauvignon and 29% Merlot, Duhart-Milon-Rothschild is a bit firmer than the Carruades de Lafite, but it is still very Pauillac. An attractive blackcurrant nose is followed by a very ample concentrated palate that is incredibly fresh and very fine indeed. Despite its considerable structure, this is a real charmer. Excellent.
