The first rung on the ladder, DBR's third label with 80% estate fruit. '12 is drinking perfectly today. Classic whiff of menthol, cigar box, violets with mouth coating cassis intensity and a long, tasty finish. Bravo, Diane Flamand.. — 10 years ago

I was always puzzled why the short-lived Chinese Lafite fetish extended to Carruades, but not to Duhart-Milon. This was bought not long ago on the cheap and delivers a legitimately Lafite-like experience. A classic Pauillac with the usual cedary aromatics and a pitch-black fruit complexion, even a bit of nuttiness. The texture is slick and glossy and while there is still some tannin here it's mostly smoothed over. Very easy drinkability here and while it may not have the dimensions of Lafite it's got very much the same taste, and even a lot of the elegance. — 11 years ago
Clean, refreshing, not sweet. Slightly effervescent — 12 years ago
When drunk side by side with the 2001 Lafite Rothschild this seemed a little past due. The nose is incredible: cigar box, cedar and leather are predominant. The fruit is secondary but appeared more after a half hour. — 10 years ago
