Reviews

Jeb Dunnuck 96

The 2005 Chateau Clerc Milon is flat out awesome, it would certainly be one of those giant killers in a blind tasting. Deep ruby/plum hued with gorgeous notes of ripe black fruits, scorched earth, chocolate, and graphite, it hits the palate with a powerful, full-bodied mouthfeel, ripe, integrated, beautifully polished tannins, and a one heck of a great finish. I love it today (with a decant) yet it has another 15-20 years of prime drinking, and a gradual decline thereafter.

James Suckling 95

This is an impressive and dynamic 2005 with blackcurrant, sweet-tobacco and raw-meat aromas that follow through to a full body with wonderful fruit complexity and succulent tannins. It's a joy to drink now, but will continue to improve for decades ahead. One of the best ever.

Wine Advocate 93

I have noticed that both myself and Robert Parker have consistently given the 2005 Chateau Clerc-Milon a very respectable 93 points. At ten years of age (has time flow that quickly?), I find no reason to change my opinion of a truly great wine for the estate. The nose is straight-down-the-line classic Clerc-Milon with intense graphite and cigar box aromas infusing the black fruit that could only come from Pauillac. The palate is medium-bodied with powerful black and red fruit, hints of tobacco suffusing the multi-layered black fruit that gently grip the mouth. It has opened slightly since I last tasted this wine, though I would still afford it another 3 to 4 years in bottle. This is a great Clerc-Milon, probably the best ever made.

Clerc-Milon continues on its rising path of quality with this rich and rounded magnificent 2005. Driven by rich, red jam fruits, and dominated by the dense, solid tannins, this wine is already approachable.

Wine Spectator 95

Offers fabulous aromas of currant, tar, lead pencil and mineral. Full-bodied, with supersoft tannins that caress the palate. Beautiful and impressive. A fabulous wine. The best Clerc in a very long time.
