Description

Château Calon Ségur 2009

St. Estèphe, 3ème Cru Classé

6 bts - Excellent levels, 3 labels very slightly soiled, owc damp soiled; Excellents niveaux, 3 étiquettes très légèrement sales, caisse en bois tâchée par l'humidité: 6 bts - Excellent levels, 1 label very slightly scuffed, owc damp soiled; Excellents niveaux, 1 étiquette très légèrement éraflée, caisse en bois tâchée par l'humidité

 

90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot. For the first time here, 100% new wood. The Cabernet Sauvignon was so ripe this year, while the Merlot had high alcohol, hence the high percentage of the former. In 2018, this is an opulent, plummy, even 'oriental' wine of the utmost delight. It melts in the mouth - archetypal 2009 and a total crowd pleaser. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
