Description

A rich colour with a garnet hue. The nose opens on blackberry notes mingled with refined hints of roasted coffee beans. With airing, noble and delicate notes of graphite, flint and cocoa round off this very attractive array of aromas. A fresh and full-bodied attack leaves an impression of generosity and superb balance, leading into a mid-palate on cherry-stone and dark chocolate flavours underpinned by chiseled tannins. The slightly chalky finish is mineral and very long. Château Clerc Milon, classified a fifth Growth in 1855, is located in an exceptionally favourable situation adjoining Lafite and Mouton, both first Growth. Now owned by Baroness Philippine de Rothschild and her children, Château Clerc Milon was bought in 1970 by her father; Baron Philippe, at a time when the estate had become very much run down. The property was entirely reorganised and renovates and, under the expert guidance of its new owners, Château Clerc Milon has become one of the most sought-after wines both in Bordeaux and throughout the word. The Château Clerc Milon label is illustrated with a pair of dancing clowns made of precious stones from the museum of Wine in Art at Château Mouton Rothschild.
