2022 Château Calon Ségur, Saint-Estèphe, is a great wine of 1st Cru level from the prestigious castle, which dates back to 1147. This wine impresses with a deep, dark color and complex aromas of dark fruits, cedar, vanilla and cinnamon. On the palate, fresh Cabernet-cassis notes combine with fine, silky tannins and a subtle minerality. The finish is long, with fruity nuances and a light saltiness. A wine of great elegance and fantastic aging potential, which will develop beautifully over time.

96 /100

The 2016 Calon-Ségur is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, 18% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot aged in 100% new French oak for 20 months. Deep garnet-purple colored, it is a little closed to begin, slowly revealing warm red and black currants, kirsch and plum preserves with wafts of fragrant earth, violets, chocolate box and wood smoke. Medium to full-bodied, elegantly expressed and finely crafted, it has a wonderfully fine-grained texture and bold freshness supporting the densely packed black fruits, finishing long and mineral-laced.

97 /100

Restrained flesh, a vertical-rise through the palate, fairly old school Calon in feel, beautifully fragrant floral aromatics, plenty of brambled deep fruits, liquorice, crayon, leather, this is lovely wine, appellation character but feels very much lush, classy, impressive. Give it a long carafe, 100% new oak for ageing.

96 /100

Deep dark ruby with an opaque core and a discreet bright rim. Delicate toasty aromas with ripe plums, black forest berry confit and some nougat. Complex on the palate with ripe cherries, well integrated ripe tannins, pleasant fruit extract on the finish, good freshness, fine fruit in the echo, great ageing potential.

96 /100

Fine perfumes from the 18% Cabernet Franc in the blend are balanced by the firm, dark tannins of the Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine has weight and richness as well as a bold, dark structure. It is going to take its time and this powerful wine will not be ready before 2025. Roger Voss

About the grape

Rød Bordeaux Blend

Rød Bordeaux Blend er en kombination af de druesorter, der traditionelt bruges til Bordeaux' berømte rødvine. Det er ikke en officiel betegnelse, men en praktisk måde at tale om en vinsstil, der nu dyrkes over hele verden – fra Californien til Australien, Sydafrika til Chile.

Essensen er fleksibilitet: typisk en blend af Cabernet Sauvignon og Merlot, ofte suppleret med Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot og Malbec. Hver drue tilfører noget unikt – struktur, frugt, krydderier eller blødhed.

Rød Bordeaux Blend er for dig, der søger kraftfuld struktur og dybe smagsnuancer. Det er vine med personlighed – nogle kan nydes straks, andre udvikler sig smukt gennem årene. Her får du en vinsstil med historisk fundament, der stadig inspirerer vinmagere verden over.

Serving

Rød Bordeaux Blend serveres bedst ved 16-18°C, hvor vinens frugt, struktur og kompleksitet står skarpest. Serveres den for varm, kan alkoholen virke mere dominerende, mens for lav temperatur dæmper aromaerne. Bordeaux anbefaler selv 16-18°C til strukturerede og lagringsværdige rødvine.
