Composed of 48% Cabernet Sauvignon 42% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc the 2015 Pastourelle de Clerc Milon is a second wine of Clerc Milon representing an earlier drinking style designed specifically for the on-trade. It is usually released a bit later (after two to three years? aging) by the Chateau in order to be consumed upon release. Medium garnet-purple colored the 2015 Pastourelle de Clerc Milon features an open-knit earthy/meaty nose of damp soil smoked meats and new leather with a core of warm red currants and blackberries plus a touch of garrigue. Medium-bodied it reveals plenty of savory layers with a chewy frame and lively lift to the finish.
