Scores

This seriously made, richly fruity, clean, earthy wine reveals light tannin as well as a spicy finish. It merits consumption during its first decade of life. Robert Parker

Tasting Notes

74% Cabernet Sauvignon/ 26% Merlot. Attractive, pure redcurrant fruit aromas with darker plum and blackberry fruit characters in the background. The palate is medium bodied with a core of attractive, sweet fruit balanced by smooth tannins and an energetic, refreshing acidity which flows through to the finish. A refined structure and a mineral dimension on the finish, with hints of tobacco, gives this wine a very classic character but it will be delicious in a few years. Drink 2015 - 2020

ProducerChâteau Calon Segur

Château Calon Segur from the Saint-Estèphe appellation in Bordeaux is one of the fourteen classified third growths in the famous Bordeaux classification of 1855. It is one of the original three vineyards in Saint-Estèphe and is a historic estate once housing the famous Château Montrose in 1825. It is also the northernmost classified growth in the Médoc. The estate has been owned by the Capbern Gasqueton family since 1894. The wines of Château Calon Segur have been cited of falling between Cos d’Estournel and Montrose in style, being long-lived without aggression. See More

Tasting Notes

Very aromatic on the nose with notes of violets, plums and red currants which open up in the glass. On the palate, cassis, blueberry and raspberry fruits are balanced by a refreshing acidity and smooth tannins while a mineral character on the finish gives complexity and great definition. Harmonious and very elegant with considerable depth, this wine is drinking beautifully...
