Quintessential Pauillac, bold and beautifully structured with deep red colour and a touch of violet petals. Full-bodied and intense, with juicy blackberry and liquorice flavours wrapped in smooth, velvety tannins. A balance of power, richness and freshness, with an elegant finish lingering with tangy acidity and subtle minerality. 

Château Clerc Milon sits in prime Pauillac territory, right next to its legendary First Growth neighbours, Mouton and Lafite Rothschild. The estate's revival began in 1970, when Baron Philippe de Rothschild acquired the neglected property and set out to restore its reputation as a Classified Growth. His daughter, Baroness Philippine de Rothschild, carried on his vision, fully re-establishing Clerc Milon as a top-tier Pauillac estate that produces wines of exceptional quality and value.

What the critics say:

93+/100Antonio Galloni, Vinous

"The 2012 Clerc Milon is dark, bold and exuberant in the glass. Plums, black cherries, tobacco and graphite are all pushed forward. Even with its considerable creaminess and overall depth, the 2012 has plenty of tannin lurking underneath, so readers would be well served cellaring the wine for at least a few years."

93/100Jane Anson, Decanter

"This is lovely, with enticing floral aromatics. This was the point that Clerc Milon was beginning to stand out, with later picking and more careful work in vineyard and cellar, and I'm thrilled to see it perform so well at 10 years on. Touch of fennel and sage, with wild spices and herbs, whether from carmanere influence, or simply its distinctive soils. Clear power, with blueberry, red cherry, cassis, loganberry, fine but present tannins and a salted caramel finish. You can start drinking this now, but it will soften further. One to recommend, good persistency also."
