TASTING DATE June 2024
The 2005 Château 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 Points
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 Spectator: 95 Points
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. Best after 2014. 10,000 cases made.
