The Accessible Classified Growth from Château Clerc Milon

Pastourelle de Clerc Milon is the second wine of the illustrious Château Clerc Milon, a Fifth Growth estate situated in the heart of Pauillac. Representing the same commitment to quality as the Grand Vin, this label offers a more approachable and earlier-drinking style. It’s a fantastic way to enjoy the classic structure and finesse of a top Pauillac without committing to decades of cellaring.

Tasting Profile (A Classic Vintage)

A beautifully balanced Bordeaux that captures the essence of its terroir:

• Colour: Deep ruby-garnet.
• Nose: Opens with rich, dark berry fruit (blackcurrant, plum) complemented by savoury notes of cedar, pencil lead, and a gentle spice.
• Palate: Smooth and full-bodied on the attack, evolving into a creamy mid-palate with well-integrated, structured tannins. The generous fruit and elegant acidity lead to a persistent, opulent finish.

Food & Service Recommendations

Perfect for a sophisticated dinner party or a memorable Sunday lunch:

• Food Pairing: Superb with Traditional Roast Beef and Yorkshire Pudding, Game Pie, or a classic Beef Wellington.
• Serving Temperature: 16-18°C.
• Sommelier's Advice: Decanting for an hour will greatly enhance the wine's aromatic complexity and smooth the tannins.
