Note di degustazione
Carménère may only make up 1% of the blend here, but its spicy tones dominate the nose, complemented by dark cassis and leafy hints. The palate is round-textured, full of deep, ripe fruit – pure and bright, tempered by a grainy grip of tannin. Aged in 55% new oak. 13% alcohol and 3.72pH. Blend: 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc, 1% Carménère, 1% Petit Verdot

The Grand Vin 2024 Château Clerc Milon from this château checks in as 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc, Carmenère, and Petit Verdot. The élevage here will span 18 months in 55% new barrels. As always, this has an incredible sense of minerality that reminds me of Saint-Émilion. Ripe black cherries, graphite, crushed stone, and floral notes, as well as nicely integrated oak, all define the aromatics, and it's medium-bodied, has a pure, layered mouthfeel, and ripe tannins.
Notes of sweet cassis, pencil shavings and creamy new oak introduce the 2024 Clerc Milon, a medium-bodied, taut and lively wine built around chalky tannins.
Excellent quality, well defined, you see the grip of the terroir here, and the floral edge of Cabernet and Carmanère, with its spicy side, and beautiful lift. Clearly needs time to full open, this has the cassis, cigar box and leather feel of a great old school Pauillac. Lovely. Harvest 24 September to 6 October. 3.72 pH. 55% new oak.
