Description

THE WINE ADVOCATE Rating: 93-95 points
Reviewed by: Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Issue Date: 27th Apr 2018, Source: 236, The Wine Advocate
"A blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot, 14% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot and 1% Carménère, the 2017 Clerc Milon is deep garnet-purple in color and scented of crushed red and black currants, wild blueberries and black pepper with touches of cigar box, violets, underbrush and menthol. Medium-bodied and with a very firm structure of wonderfully ripe, pixelated tannins and exhilarating freshness, it finishes long with notes of pebbles and floral perfume."

DECANTER MAGAZINE - 94 points
Tasted by Jane Anson (at Primeur week tastings in Bordeaux, 09 Apr 2018)
"It's immediately obvious from both colour and first nose that this has a wonderful richness to it, offering powerful cherry pit, graphite and dark chocolate notes but without being overly sweet. A serious wine that is delivering on its potential, vintage after vintage. The Cab Franc vines are on limestone and clay here, and reached perfect ripeness. Overall there is a higher percentage of both Cabernets than usual in the blend. 9% press wine. 50% new oak." Drinking Window 2025 - 2038
