about this wine:

Location: Chateau Clerc-Milon is located in Pauillac, just between Chateau Mouton-Rothschild and Chateau Lafite-Rothschild. 69 acres producing 14,000 cases. Classification: 5th Growth Grape Varieties: 65% Cabernet Sauvignon , 25% Merlot, 10% other varieties. Vinification and aging: These wines receive the same treatment as their more famous neighbor and Rothschild stablemate, Chateau Lafite-Rothschild. Style: The wines of Clerc Milon are firm and well structured due to the high percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon used to make them. They have hints of raspberry and black currant in the nose and on the palate. These wines are able to easily age for a decade or longer but are suprisingly accessible at much younger ages...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, February 1997

A saturated dark ruby/purple-colored, medium-bodied, well-made wine, Clerc-Milon's 1993 exhibits textbook, blackcurrant and weedy tobacco scents. Although the wine is slightly tannic, it does not reveal any of the vintage's astringency or vegetal characteristics. It should offer attractive, velvety-textured, surprisingly fine drinking ...

Wine Spectator, January 1996

Clerc Milon is a sure bet for a very good wine in any vintage. Impressive medium to full body, tobacco, cherry, tar and chestnut character, velvety tannins and medium finish. Needs time; try in 1998. -JS

About Winery

Chateau Clerc-Milon is located in Pauillac, just between Chateau Mouton-Rothschild and Chateau Lafite-Rothschild...69 acres producing 14,000 cases... 5th Growth..65% Cabernet Sauvignon , 25% Merlot, 10% other varieties... These wines receive the same treatment as their more famous neighbor and Rothschild stablemate, Chateau Lafite-Rothschild...This chateau was named a fifth growth in the Medoc Classification of 1855 but always seemed to be an underachiever considering its prime location between two first growths (Mouton and Lafite). It had prime location and soil but never realized the expectations that were placed upon it. The estate is marked by the half-finished chateau which sits on the property. In 1970, the Baron Philippe de Rothschild purchased the property and began a complete renovation of the vineyards and the cellars. New fermentation vats were added to lenghten the maceration time. The chateau started to show what it could become with the fabulous 1982 vintage and really came into it's own in about 1985...The wines of Clerc Milon are firm and well structured due to the high percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon used to make them. They have hints of raspberry and black currant in the nose and on the palate. These wines are able to easily age for a decade or longer but are suprisingly accessible at much younger ages. They are often approachable when 6 or 7 years old...
