Château Duhart-Milon 2022
Est. delivery in 2025 Château Duhart-Milon’s vineyard consists mainly of a single block of vines on the west side of Château Lafite Rothschild, on the Milon hillside, which runs along the Carruades plateau. The property has 76 hectares of vine. The soil is fine gravel mixed with aeolian sand on tertiary limestone subsoil. The growing season was closely monitored, coming after a severe winter and some spring frost. Flowering was not very productive, constant humidity favoured disease and the summer was moderately warm. Fortunately, September was fine and so it was possible to wait for the grapes to fully ripen, with late harvests.
Philippe Pacalet, Cornas 2021
Philippe Pacalet is easily one of our favourite Burgundians, combining a wicked sense of humour with his own bold approach to winemaking that has placed him at the forefront of the Cote d’Or. What else would you expect from the former winemaker at the illustrious Domaine Prieuré-Roch?! We’re always delighted to visit Philippe in Burgundy and few winemakers are able to express the complex character of a vintage in such few words. His wines have reached cult status worldwide, remaining viscerally exciting and characterised by energy, intensity, authenticity, complex tannins and a “funky purity”.
