Château Clerc-Milon 2010 Subskription

Weitere Verkostungsnotizen

"The powerful 2010 is a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc and the balance mostly Merlot except for dollops of Petit Verdot and Carmenere that achieved 14.5% natural alcohol – a record at Clerc Milon. An intense purple color is followed by notes of incense, creme de cassis and flowers and a broad, rich wine with superb purity, concentration and depth. This layered, expansive effort could turn out to be one of the finest this estate has ever made. Give it 3-5 years of cellaring and drink it over the following two decades."

"Tiefes Purpur. IIntensives Cassisbouquet,  rote Beeren.  Grosser Gaumenauftritt mit viel Souplesse, reife Pflaumen, Lakritze, Edelhölzer, dezent kernige Noten, gebündeltes Finale. Wieder ein grossartiger Clerc-Milon - und Sieger über d'Armailhacq."

"For my money, Clerc Milon is looking wonderful this year. Full of power, this has the minty edge, the tannins and the freshness to really lift you up and carry you through. About 30% down on volume from last year. 94-95+/100. Drink 2020-2040."

"Rich blackcurrant fruit with some dry herbs/coffee spice nose, very good middle fruit and a firm, elegant structure and class, a château on top form. Drink 2018-35."

"I can’t remember tasting a young Clerc as exciting as this since the 1980s. Fascinating aromas of blackberries and currant jam. Very deep. Tar too. Full and very dense. It just tickles the tip of your tongue. So much there. 50 percent Cabernet Sauvignon, 36 per cent Merlot, 11 percent Cabernet Franc, 2 percent Petit Verdot, and 1 percent Carménère."

"Superb nose - an interesting medley of right and left bank- clean, creamy, elegant. Subdued on entry, then round on the palate, with lift and density. Good sappy length."

"A blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 36% Merlot, 11% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot and 1% Camenere is a little reticent at first, but after 2 minutes of rigorous coaxing evolves a very pure nose of macerated black cherries, blueberry and cassis with very fine delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with a compact entry that seems to expand as it remain in the mouth. The tannins are a little more prominent than the d’Armailhac with a citrus-like freshness on the finish. It has a little more alcohol (14.5%) thanks to the Merlot compared to the others, but there it is what you might describe as a joyous Clerc-Milon. Drink 2015- Tasted April 2011."

"Sehr dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe; einladende Würze, angenehmer tabakiger Touch, mit schwarzer Beerenfrucht unterlegt; kraftvoll und kernig, feiner Brombeertouch, dunkle Mineralik, zarter Bitterschokotouch, etwas weniger offen als der d'Armailhac, sehr gutes Entwicklungspotenzial."
