Not surprisingly, the wines of the outstanding Bordeaux producers he and I met in April 2013 took Moore Brothers by storm: Château Reverdi in Listrac, Château Sipian in the Médoc, Château Haut Rocher in Saint Émilion, and Château Tournefeuille in Lalande de Pomerol, not to mention Châteaux Brûlesécaille and Martinat in the Côtes de Bourg.<br /><br />Even so, I felt wistful as we looked down on the vineyards of <strong>P&eacute;trus</strong> and <strong>Lafleur </strong>from the terraces above Tournefeuille, and even more so when we drove down the Médoc along the D2 past <strong>Lynch Bages</strong> and <strong>Lafite</strong>, remembering the magnificent wines I opened every day when I was the sommelier at <strong><em>Le Bec-Fin</em></strong> in Philadelphia. Which led me to ask Pierre if any of his long relationships with the biggest players in Bordeaux might open a cellar or two for a small direct purchase.<br /><br />You might find the wine elsewhere for less, <strong><em>but then you&rsquo;d always wonder when, and under what conditions it had been transported from the Ch&acirc;teau, not to mention how many different places it has been since then</em>.</strong><br /><br />Only 216 bottles are available, every one shipped directly from the Château. (97 points from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate).<br /><br />Today's Offering:<br /><br /><strong><a rel="nofollow" href="https://store.moorebrothers.com/cart/add/filemaker/1018756/store/1">Pauillac Ch&acirc;teau Duhart Milon 2009 in New Jersey</a></strong><br /><br /><strong><a rel="nofollow" href="https://store.moorebrothers.com/cart/add/filemaker/1029275/store/3">Pauillac Ch&acirc;teau Duhart Milon 2009 In Delaware</a></strong> </p> <p>Posted under <a href="/blog/learn-from-greg">Learn from Greg</a></p> <h2>Wines you May Enjoy</h2> <div class="section" id="related_wines"> <div class="row "> <div class="col-xs-5 col-sm-3 col-md-2"> <a href="/inventory/12428/pauillac-chteau-duhart-milon-2009/"> <img src="https://static2.moorebrothers.com/wine_labels/MBPOS_1841A.jpg" alt="" class="img-responsive"> </a> <div class="visible-xs"> <h4>$215.00</h4> <form method="GET" action="/cart/add/inventory/12428"> <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Add to Cart</button> </form> </div> </div> <div class="col-xs-6 col-sm-6 col-md-7"> <h4><a href="/inventory/12428/pauillac-chteau-duhart-milon-2009/">Pauillac Château Duhart-Milon 2009</a></h4> <p> <a href="/country/8/france">France</a> - <a href="/producer/342/chteau-duhart-milon">Château Duhart-Milon</a> - <a href="/grape/17/cabernet-sauvignon">Cabernet Sauvignon</a> </p> In the glass, the Château Duhart Milon 2009 is black at the center, with flashes of ruby red at the edge.
