I 1970 købte Rothschild-familien Château Clerc Milon, der på det tidspunkt trængte til en gennemrenovering. Slottet ligger som nabo til vinmarkerne hos såvel storebror Mouton-Rothschild som en anden berømte slægtning; Lafite-Rothschild.
Da Rothschild-familien købte Château Clerc Milon i 1970 var slottet og vinen en skygge af, hvad den er i dag. De nye ejere renoverede ejendommen og de omliggende marker. I dag er Château Clerc Milon en efterspurgt vare, der især i de unge år tiltaler et stort publikum.

The finest example of the château I've tasted, the 2022 Château Clerc Milon is deep purple-hued with a sensational perfume of crème de cassis, spring flowers, spicy oak, and graphite. It's full-bodied, concentrated, has a weightless mouthfeel, and beautiful tannins, all making for a riveting Pauillac. It needs a decade of bottle age to hit prime time, but this is another truly special 2022 that readers should pounce on.
So much Pauillac character with lead pencil, currants and red fruit. Orange peel and slightly burnt oranges. Medium-bodied, this has creamy and crunchy tannins as well as dried citrus and a flavorful finish. Lovely drive to this exquisite, energetic wine. Drink after 2028.
Aromas of sweet crème de cassis, licorice, violets and creamy new oak introduce the 2022 Clerc Milon, a full-bodied, rich and layered wine that's deep and vibrant, with ripe, integrated tannins and lively acids, concluding with a long finish. As I wrote en primeur, its clay-limestone terroir lends it a distinctive signature that sets it apart from the rest of the portfolio.
