Description

Château Clerc Milon Rothschild 1998

The 1998 Château Clerc Milon Rothschild is now entering a fine stage of maturity, offering a classic expression of Pauillac with both depth and elegance. The nose opens with inviting aromas of cassis, blackcurrant and plum, complemented by notes of cedar, tobacco and a gentle hint of spice that reflect its time in bottle.

On the palate, the wine is smooth and well-balanced, with softened tannins and a refined structure that allows the fruit and secondary characteristics to show clearly. Layers of dark fruit are supported by subtle earthy tones and a touch of graphite, leading to a harmonious and composed profile.

The finish is long and persistent, with lingering notes of cedar, dried fruits and a delicate savoury edge. This is a wine that has developed beautifully, offering complexity without losing its freshness and balance.

Now drinking well, this 1998 Pauillac is an excellent choice for those seeking a mature classified growth Bordeaux that combines pedigree, approachability and classic regional character.

This mature Pauillac pairs beautifully with classic, flavourful dishes such as roast lamb, beef Wellington or grilled ribeye steak, where the wine’s structure and savoury notes complement the richness of the meat. It also works well with slow-cooked dishes such as braised short ribs or venison, as well as hard, aged cheeses like Comté or mature Cheddar, which enhance its depth and complexity.
