2019 Clerc Milon 6 Pack

Clerc Milon: Legendary Terroir, Prestigious Neighbors, Providential Encounter. The history and success of Château Clerc Milon, a Grand Cru Classé of the 1855 classification, can be captured in these three defining elements. Its terroir is that of Pauillac, home to some of the world’s finest wines. The estate’s 41-hectare vineyard lies on the Mousset hillside, overlooking the Gironde River and benefiting from an ideal microclimate. The soils, composed of deep sandy gravel over a clay-limestone subsoil, provide the perfect foundation for wines of remarkable depth and elegance. Its neighbours are none other than Mouton Rothschild and Lafite Rothschild—illustrious First Growths whose vines can be seen from the Château’s terrace. And the encounter was with Baron Philippe de Rothschild, who in 1970 acquired this long-neglected estate and undertook its restoration, returning it to its rightful place among the Classified Growths. The 2019 Vintage: The year 2019 began with a warm and dry winter, marked by a record 24.7°C on February 27, advancing the vine cycle. A cool spring slowed this progression, bringing flowering back to usual dates. June was a month of contrasts, with cool temperatures, rainfall, and warmth, while July and August were sunny and hot, with beneficial precipitation preventing dehydration. The harvest, from September 19 to October 9, took place under excellent conditions, ensuring impeccable grape quality. The wines are rich, with great concentration, vibrant color, and dense, silky tannins. Tasting Notes: Deep garnet with purple reflections. The nose is elegant and refined, offering floral aromas, blackcurrant, and licorice. The palate is broad and smooth, with complex notes of toasted grains and violet accompanying ripe fruit flavors. The mid-palate is structured by dense and velvety tannins. The finish is saline and subtly minty, prolonged by delicate chocolate nuances.
