2000 Ch Duhart-Milan Rothschild

[winoweenie]

This 4th growth Pauillac has come alive the last 10 years. This 00 has the porential to become outstanding. Deep ruby. Nose.....where are you? This sucker was closed as tight as the lid on grammas' home-canned pickles. Deep ruby. Quite astringent in the mouth. Crushed blackcurrents, plums, spice, and leather with new oak showing. The finish shuts down almost immediately due to some heavy tannins. Think I'll let the rest of this box have another 5-8 before opening again. Potentially 91/94 26 on futures. 12.5% alc. WW
