1994 Clerc Milon Bordeaux Blend
Bordeaux Blend: 6000ml
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...

Wine Spectator, January 1997
Complex aromas of spices, berries and plums, with fine, silky tannins and a caressing finish. Medium body. Hard not to drink it now, but better in 1999. -JS
