	THE WINERY

	At the urging of the owners of Lafite, the area around Pauillac started to be covered with vines in the 18th century. In 1815, the wine from the Milon hills began to be talked about as a Fourth Growth Pauillac wine. In the middle of the 19th century, the Castéja family inherited a 40-hectare vineyard which was named Duhart-Milon in reference to an ancestor pirate of Louis XV. His house (there is no chateau) inspired the label for the Duhart-Milon wines. The only 4th Growth wine in Pauillac, the estate was bought by the Rothschild family in 1962 when the quality of the Duhart-Milon wines had greatly declined and only 17 hectares of vineyards remained. After major construction projects which lasted 40 years and deep changes in the vineyards, the Duhart-Milon wine is again remarkably fine and has this typical and powerful aromatic complexity. The estate now covers 152 hectares, of which 71 hectares are vineyards. Cabernet Sauvignon (69%), Merlot (28%) and Cabernet Franc (3%) are planted on soils of fine gravel mixed with Aeolian sands.
