Pauillac 4th Growth Classification

The 1984 Château Duhart-Milon is a well-aged Fourth Growth Pauillac, but it originates from a challenging vintage. The 1984 Bordeaux growing season was marked by cool, damp weather, leading to hard, austere Cabernet-based wines that lacked the balance for long-term aging. Now, over 40 years later, this wine remains a historical curiosity, though its drinkability will largely depend on careful storage.

Reports suggest that the 1984 Duhart-Milon is advanced in maturity, with a thin and delicate structure. While some bottles may still offer subtle earthy notes and hints of old Pauillac character, others may have faded beyond their prime. …

Giordano

Barolo is known as the 'king of wines' and is made from the Nebbiolo grape. Heady aromas of rose, leather, vanilla, cherry, pepper, cranberry, strawberry. Fruits are perfectly knitted with the tannins and acidity. It's a powerful wine but remarkably subtle. Don't underestimate it and certainly serve it with food to show at it's best.
