Château Clerc Milon, Pauillac 5 2023

Château Clerc Milon 2023 is a refined Pauillac red from one of Bordeaux’s celebrated 5th Growth estates, classified in the 1855 Classification. Produced under the guidance of the Mouton Rothschild family, it combines classic Cabernet Sauvignon structure with Pauillac’s characteristic depth, precision and longevity.

Tasting Notes
The 2023 vintage displays a deep ruby to purple colour. Its bouquet is expressive and layered, offering aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry and plum alongside violet, cedar, graphite and subtle spice. On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied, with concentrated dark-fruit flavours, finely integrated tannins and a fresh mineral edge. The finish is persistent and poised, suggesting a wine that will develop additional complexity with bottle age.

Production
The vineyards of Château Clerc Milon are situated in Pauillac, where gravelly soils over well-draining subsoils provide ideal conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon and help produce wines with both concentration and freshness. Grapes are harvested parcel by parcel at optimal ripeness, then carefully sorted before fermentation in temperature-controlled vats. The wine is matured in oak to add texture and complexity while preserving the estate’s precise, Cabernet-led character. The 2023 is suitable for further ageing and should develop beautifully over the next decade or more under good cellar conditions.

Food & Serving
Enjoy Château Clerc Milon 2023 with roast lamb, beef fillet, venison, duck breast or richly flavoured mushroom dishes. It is best served at around 16–18°C. Young bottles benefit from decanting for approximately one to two hours, while older bottles can be decanted more gently to separate any sediment.

Producer
Château Clerc Milon takes its name from the Clerc family, who owned the estate in the 18th century, and the hamlet of Milon. It became part of the Mouton Rothschild group in the 1970s and has since undergone significant investment in its vineyards and winemaking facilities. Classified as a 5th Growth in 1855, the château is widely respected for producing elegant, age-worthy Pauillac wines that reflect both their gravel-rich terroir and the expertise of one of Bordeaux’s most prominent wine families.
