"An outstanding Duhart, certainly one of the best produced at this estate since the 1996, 1986, and 1982, this blend of 80.5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 19.5% Merlot reveals a deep ruby/purple color as well as notes of lead pencil intermixed with wet stones, black currants, and a certain leafiness. Medium to full-bodied, ripe, and dense, but tightly-knit, with considerable tannin, it will require patience. For those willing to wait, it will be a sleeper of the vintage. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2019."

"A fine Duhart, the dense purple-colored 2000 offers an exquisite combination of black currant fruit, minerals, tobacco, smoke, and earth. It possesses excellent definition, a sweet attack, and a medium to full-bodied, layered finish with moderate tannin. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2018."

"The 2000 is made in a light, elegant, refreshing style. It may lack fat and exuberance, but there is no doubting its purity as well as transparent expression of Duhart Milon's terroir. A blend of 80.5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 19.5% Merlot, it will benefit from 3-4 years of cellaring, and age nicely for 15+ years."
