Château Clerc Milon: The Structured Elegance of Pauillac
A Fifth Growth Classified Grand Cru (1855), Château Clerc Milon is a celebrated Médoc property, directly adjacent to First Growths. Acquired by Baron Philippe de Rothschild in 1970, it stands today as the epitome of Pauillac style: powerful, complex, and supremely refined. Its 41-hectare vineyard, situated on the Mousset plateau, benefits from exceptional deep gravel and clay-limestone soils, which impart the wine with its signature racy structure and aging potential.
Tasting Notes
- **Color:** Deep, brilliant garnet.
- **Nez:** Complex and intense, opening with aromas of blackcurrant, blueberry, and licorice, evolving into elegant hints of cedar, graphite, and tobacco.
- **Palate:** The attack is velvety and precise. The mid-palate is rich and smooth, supported by coated tannins of remarkable finesse. Mineral freshness balances the density of the fruit.
Pairing & Service
This Grand Vin is an ideal partner for the most sophisticated dishes. Serve between 62 and 64°F (17-18°C) after decanting for at least two hours for younger vintages.
- **Pairing Suggestions:** Grilled Beef Tenderloin with Herb Crust, Rack of Lamb with Rosemary, Seared Duck Breast, Aged Cheddar.
