Clerc Milon 雙公仔
1789 Part of the vast estates of the seigneury of Lafite in the 18th century, Château Clerc Milon was sold as a “national asset” in the Revolution. The Clerc family acquired it then and joined its name to that of the Pauillac hamlet of Milon where it was located.
Winemaker Notes
RP: 91
The wine has a lovely, deep color with a cherry tint and a bouquet which displays powerful berry fruit and blackcurrant aromas alongside toast and roasted coffee. From a creamy attack with plenty of heft, fruity and pleasantly oaked, it builds on well-developed, forward tannins to a body rich in ripe fruit flavors which combine the character and power of blackcurrant with the elegance and refinement of vanilla. The finish, long and flavorsome but still rather reserved, gives a foretaste of the full potential of this generous vintage.
