Tasting Notes
Hailed as one of the best vintages of this century, the 2009 Clerc Milon is a phenominal example of great Cabernet Sauvignon from a great vintage. It will age so hold on tight. - Winery Note
Château Clerc Milon now has 41 hectares (101 acres) of vines in the north-east of the Pauillac appellation, on the lovely Mousset crest overlooking the Gironde. The slight slope favours both natural drainage and exposure to sunlight, while the nearby river creates a microclimate that protects the vines from frost in spring, reduces the risk of hail and brings coolness in summer. The soil is made up of two-thirds deep sandy gravel over a clay-limestone base which outcrops in the eastern part of the estate.
