Score 84/100 · Drink 1988, Robert Parker, Jan 1998

A medium-bodied wine with a well-developed, ripe fruity, spicy, toasty, iron-scented bouquet, and soft, savory, round flavors, the 1978 Duhart-Milon is the first wine in a succession of vintages that began to correctly reflect the style and character of the famous sibling, Lafite-Rothschild. The 1978 Duhart-Milon is fully mature. Anticipated maturity: Now. Last tasted, 3/88.
