Pastourelle de Clerc Milon is the second wine of Château Clerc Milon, offering classic Pauillac character with aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, black cherry, cedar, graphite, tobacco, violet, and subtle baking spice. Elegant and approachable, it delivers silky tannins, vibrant freshness, refined structure, and a long, polished finish.
Food Pairing: Pair with grilled ribeye, roast lamb, beef Wellington, duck breast, mushroom risotto, aged Comté, braised short ribs, or roasted root vegetables.
93 Points - James Suckling
Currant and lead pencil. Pure. Peach skin. Medium-bodied with firm and polished tannins and a savory finish. Slightly straightforward, but I like the clarity and brightness.
91 Points - Decanter
A lovely sappy juicy wine, they have carefully controlled the extraction and it is less monolithic than many of the second wines this year. Still some astringency to the tannins, and a powerful punch of blackberry fruit that keeps up an excellent pace through the palate. Caroline Artaud began as technical director in July 2020, so halfway through this vintage, with Jean-Emmanuel Danjoy becoming head winemaker across at Mouton. To be partly sold en primeur this year for the first time (before it was just in bottle). 1% Carmanère completes the blend (and is all in the Pastourelle this year, except for the 0.6% of oldest vines). Yields 45hl/ha.
90 Points - Jeb Dunnuck
The second wine of Château Clerc Milon is the 2020 Pastourelle De Clerc Milon, a ripe, up-front, straight-up delicious second wine offering cassis and darker cherry fruits, some chocolaty oak and minerality, medium body, ripe tannins, and a good finish.
90 Points - Wine Enthusiast
This rich wine is full of black fruits, with spice and light tannins. This second wine is delicious, generous with its berry flavors.
