Chateau Clerc Milon 2020, 5eme Grand Cru Classe Pauillac, France

Regular price £130.00

Chateau Clerc Milon is a Fifth Growth estate located in Pauillac in Bordeaux. It was acquired by the owner of Chateau Mouton Rothschild, Baron Philippe de Rothschild, in 1970. Baron Philippe saw the potential in Clerc Milon and its 40 hectare estate. After many modern advancements and improvements since made to the winery and vineyard, Chateau Clerc Milon is a force to be reckoned with and one of the leading estates in Bordeaux.

The wine is a deep cherry red with garnet highlights. The nose reveals an intense and complex array of aromas on which macerated black fruit mingles with liquorice and cedarwood. On the attack, the creamy, silky mouthfeel combines depth, density and supreme elegance, leading into a rich and smooth mid-palate on blackcurrant and bilberry flavours illuminated by attractive freshness over a rounded, refined tannic structure.
