Tasting Note
다른 포이약 지역 와인들보다 여성스러운 향과 맛의 와인이다. 와이너리 주인분도 아주 여성스러우셔서
개인의 스타일이 녹아있는 와인인거 같다.

소유자의 말
와인은 짙은 가넷빛의 붉은색이다. 독특하고 우아한 향은 바이올렛 꽃 향과 어우러진 체리, 블랙커런트, 감초 향을 표현합니다. 풍부하고 강력한 어택은 미각의 중간 부분에 정확하고 우아한 타닌 구조를 드러냅니다. 페퍼와 시더우드의 세련된 터치가 빛나는 풍미를 완성합니다. 아름답게 균형잡힌 여운이 오래도록 입안에 남아 뛰어난 숙성 가능성을 예고합니다.
Château Clerc-Milon is yet another prestigious wine estate located in the Pauillac appellation of Bordeaux, France. It is classified as a Cinquième Cru (Fifth Growth) in the Classification of 1855, a testament to its historical significance and the quality of its wines.
Owned by the Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) since 1970, Château Clerc-Milon benefits from the expertise and tradition of one of Bordeaux's most esteemed winemaking families. The estate's vineyards are planted with a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot grapes, which thrive in the region's gravelly soils and maritime climate.
Château Clerc-Milon is renowned for producing wines that are elegant, structured, and age-worthy. They typically exhibit aromas of blackcurrants, cedar, tobacco, and graphite, with a velvety texture and a long, persistent finish. The estate embraces modern winemaking techniques while respecting the terroir and heritage of the Pauillac appellation.
Visitors to Château Clerc- Milon

History
A legendary terroir, a prestigious neighborhood, a providential encounter: the history and success of Château Clerc Milon are summed up in these three words. The terroir is that of Pauillac, where some of the world’s greatest wines are produced. The neighborhood is that of Mouton and Lafite, illustrious Premiers Crus whose nearby vineyards can be seen from the terrace of the Château. As for the meeting, it was with Baron Philippe, who acquired this then almost abandoned estate in 1970, and undertook to restore it to its rank of Cru Classé.
Finally, thanks to the Baroness Philippe, Clerc Milon, one of the most appreciated Châteaux in the Bordeaux region, is today equipped with technical installations and reception areas worthy of its reputation.
Terroir
Château Clerc Milon today has 41 hectares of vines, located in the north-eastern part of the Pauillac appellation. It mainly occupies the beautiful croup of Mousset, which overlooks the Gironde. This slight slope favors both natural drainage and sunshine, while the proximity of the river creates a microclimate that protects the vines from spring frosts, reduces the risk of hail and brings freshness in summer. Two thirds of the soil is made up of deep sandy gravel, sitting on a clay-limestone base that outcrops on the eastern part of the estate.
The vineyard is planted with five grape varieties typical of the region: cabernet-sauvignon (50%), merlot (37%), cabernet franc (10%), petit verdot (2%) and carmenère (1%). It has an average age of 53 years, probably one of the highest in the Médoc. Mostly planted before the development of clonal selection, it conceals an exceptionally rich genetic heritage. The density of plantation, high, varies from 8,500 to 10,000 plants per hectare depending on the plots.
Viticulture is practiced in ‘integrated’ mode, respecting the environment and strictly limiting the use of phytosanitary products. The vineyard is subject to careful monitoring and a strict selection of plots, which have nothing to envy to those practiced at Château Mouton Rothschild.
A wine for long ageing, a successful marriage of gravelly and clay-limestone terroirs, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes, powerful, tannic, fruity and harmoniously structured, Château Clerc Milon possesses all the elegance typical of the best Pauillac crus.
Tasting
At the tasting, Clerc Milon presents itself as a fleshy and greedy wine, with very tight tannins.
