Château Clerc Milon 2019

Red wine | 5th Cru Classé, Pauillac AC

A legendary terroir, a prestigious neighborhood, a providential encounter: the history and success of Château Clerc Milon are contained in these three words. The terroir is that of Pauillac, where some of the greatest wines in the world are produced. The neighborhood is that of Mouton and Lafite, illustrious Premiers Crus. As for the meeting, it was with Baron Philippe de Rothschild, who acquired this estate in 1970, which was then almost abandoned, and restored its rank as Cru Classé.

    A very tight, precise red with super fine tannins that are tight and focused. Medium-to full-bodied with linear tannins and a bright, vivid finish. It’s leaner and refined. Precise and driven. This is a very cabernet sauvignon-driven Clerc with 72% cabernet sauvignon.

    Après la belle puissance appréciée dans le 2018, voici que Clerc Milon présente en 2019 une grâce tactile insoupçonnée. Couleur sombre, intense, pourpre et belle. Nez très aromatique pour le cru, intense, fruité et pur. Moelleux et fondant de par en part, sur un toucher noble, le vin s’étire en finale sur des tannins très fins. C’est superbe ! 2028 – 2055.

    Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
    The blend this year is 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot, harvested from the 19th of September to the 9th of October. Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2019 Clerc Milon starts out a little closed and broody, offering notes of tar, chargrill, tapenade and Marmite toast over an emerging core of stewed plums, black cherries and kirsch with a touch of garrigue. The medium-bodied palate delivers loads of freshness with crunchy black fruits and a lively line, backed up by grainy tannins, finishing long and savory.
