The 2022 Pastourelle De Clerc Milon is a full-bodied, ripe, straight-up sexy second wine offering red and black fruits, an expansive, layered, seamless mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It's going to shine right out of the gate. This second wine is 52% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot, with the balance Cabernet Franc, Carmenère, and Petit Verdot, brought up all in used barrels. - Jeb Dunnuck. The 2022 Pastourelle de Clerc Milon is a heady, exuberant wine that captures all of the richness of the year in its flamboyant personality. Super-ripe dark cherry, plum, chocolate, licorice and sweet spice are all amplified nicely. The 2022 is an easygoing wine to drink now and over the next decade or so. - Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media. Massy black fruits, brambles and cherries. Nicely fragrant and open on the nose. Juicy and bright, mouthwatering, quite lean, tannins are at the fore, but quite bright so you get the texture with some vibrancy but nothing harsh. Lots of flavour and concentration but also cool blue fruits and some sharp almost bitter and spiced touches that give the nuance. Forward, bright, energetic, very easy to understand and easy to enjoy. Balanced with a touch of creamy, powdery tannins on the finish. You feel the power for sure, punchy and concentrated but really well delivered. 3.8% press wine. 2% Carmenère and 1% Petit Verdot complete the blend. 3.81pH. - Georgina Hindle, Decanter. Made from 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, 2% Carmenere, and 1% Petit Verdot, the 2022 Pastourelle de Clerc Milon is deep garnet-purple in color. It offers up scents of crushed black plums, juicy blackberries, and mulberries, followed by hints of pencil shavings, underbrush, and cumin seed. The full-bodied palate is rich yet has plenty of freshness, featuring expressive black fruit preserves flavors and a spicy kick to the finish. pH 3.81, Tpi 71. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Independent |
