Apparently a 3rd wine of a 5th growth. Decent Bordeaux but not worth a revisit. — 6 years ago

Super dry and pleasant dustiness. Not a lot of acid , tannins, or bite. Cherries, earthiness, dried roses, shirt finish. From Seventh Avenue Liquors. — 8 years ago

CabS 60%, Merlot 29%, CF 9%, Petit Verdot 1%, Carmenère 1%. Deep reddish purple color. Powerful, concentrated and aromatic. Persistent flavors of black fruits. Complex with good finish. Wine have just reached its peak and will stay there for at least 5-7 years. Château Clerc Milon rated as a 5th growth Grand Cru (1855 Class.), but given its great quality for past decades deserves 3-4th growth. So it is a bargain most of the time. Belongs to Baron Philippe de Rothschild since 1970. Rating 4,0/5 — 9 years ago

Opened a wedding present that's now got a bit of age on it. Bouquet and taste that's still passionate. Must be a good sign. — 11 years ago

2 years in oak barrels, followed by 2 years of bottle age, then released in the 5th year. Montalcino has made Brunello both a science and passion. In the most recent vintages, 2001, 2004, 2006, it didn't matter the vineyard ... Most are outstanding. But some stick out and this wine does just that. The fruit that initially hits the palate is mind blowing. How can this not be a Bordeaux blend? How can this just be Sangiovese? But it continues with the grace and balance of an old world red. Unfortunately, I haven't seen this bottle in at least a few years and I only have 1 bottle left. But for under $50, this definitely stands out! Cheers! — 12 years ago

Just gorgeous. 5th we've opened from the case. Starting to bloom beautifully. Bright red cherries, black berries, tobacco, a touch of leather. Wonderful compliment to a gorgeous Wagyu ribeye — 9 years ago

5th growth Bordeaux. Full-bodied, well balanced with a pleasant array of cassis, plum and cedar. Firm tannins that round off towards the finish. Perfect steak pairing wine! — 12 years ago

Called this New World blind, but disappointing as group’s 5th of 7. Despite an initial green/vegetal quality that blew off, this was full, brambly-nosed and super smooth. — 7 years ago

Asking only workman's wages
I come looking for a job,
But I get no offers,
Just a come-on from the whores on Seventh avenue
I do declare, there were times when I was so lonesome I took so comfort there.

Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenére, Syrah and Petit Verdot. Intense blackberry and cocoa aromas. Almost voluptuous-like on the palate with blue fruit, a hint of oak, balanced acid and well-integrated tannins. — 10 years ago
