A legendary terroir, prestigious neighbours, and a providential encounter: Château Clerc Milon.
The terroir is that of Pauillac, where some of the world’s finest wines are made. The neighbours are Mouton and Lafite, illustrious First Growths whose nearby vines can be seen from the terrace of the Château.
Thanks to Baroness Philippine, Clerc Milon is one of the most highly regarded Châteaux in the Bordeaux region.

Tasting notes The wine is a radiant crimson red. The highly promising, rich and expressive nose opens on blackcurrant and kirsch notes mingled with cedarwood and spice aromas.
The succulent and precise palate, its rich texture underpinned by mature and creamy tannins, confirms the excellence of a great vintage. Blond tobacco and minty notes round off the long and substantial finish, underlining the wine’s perfect harmony.
