Château Calon Ségur 2019 is an exclusive red wine from Saint-Estèphe in Bordeaux, France, combining classic Médoc structure with depth, elegance, and great complexity. The wine is a beautiful expression of the château's characteristic style, where dark fruit, firm structure, and refined finesse merge into a harmonious and age-worthy whole. The 2019 vintage appears particularly successful with both concentration, freshness, and a fine balance, making it an obvious choice for those seeking a grand Bordeaux with personality and classic French character.

On the nose, the wine opens with intense notes of blackcurrant, black cherry, and ripe plum, elegantly complemented by cedarwood, tobacco, graphite, violet, and subtle spicy undertones. The aromatic profile is deep, sophisticated, and very inviting, with a beautiful combination of dark fruit and the characteristic Saint-Estèphe signature. The palate is full-bodied, well-structured, and precise, with ripe tannins, lively acidity, and a long, nuanced finish where fruit, spice, and minerality beautifully emerge. The result is a wine with both power, balance, and impressive aging potential.

Château Calon Ségur 2019 pairs particularly well with beef, lamb, game, braised dishes, and aged cheeses. It is a wine for special dinners and for those seeking a stylish and characterful Bordeaux with depth, complexity, and timeless elegance.

96 /100

Vincent Millet (who can boast a doctorate in wine microbiology and who took up his post as Calon's technical director after a stint at Château Margaux) is doing everything right in terms of restructuring the estate's somewhat neglected vineyards with massal selections, higher density plantings, cover crops and precision viticulture. He's also cleaned up and modernized the winery. The 2019 Calon-Ségur shows the impact of some of those changes already, offering up a rich bouquet of crème de cassis, licorice, warm spices and subtle hints of cigar box, followed by a full-bodied, broad and fleshy palate that's deep and concentrated, with lively acids and beautifully refined tannins. All this is very impressive, but the fly in the ointment is an alcohol level that flirts with 15% and makes itself felt on the warm, liqueured finish. Balance isn't a matter of mere numbers, of course, but despite its admirable qualities and the serious work behind it, I do have reservations about this wine's ultimate equilibrium. Time will tell. The good news is that Millet is actively exploring viticultural strategies to mitigate high alcohol levels.

Rich and silky in texture, full of ripe brambled fruits and powerfully concentrated tannins. Touch of reduction on the first nose that needs time to clear, lots to enjoy and it unquestionably makes an impression. Plenty of signature St Estèphe punch. Tasted twice. 40hl/ha yield, 100% new oak. Eric Boissenot consultant, Vincent Millet CEO and technical director.

Dark, firm with great intensity and rich fruits, this is a powerful wine. Its richness is opened up by the succulent acidity and fine freshness coming from the fruit. Together, the elements work well, power and fruit in harmony. Drink the wine from 2027. Roger Voss

97 /100

Dark ruby, opaque core, purple reflections, delicate rim brightening. Black berries, a hint of bergamot and Darjeeling tea, blueberry and cedar wood, exotic bouquet. Powerful, juicy and sweet, chocolaty nuances, firm, supporting tannins, savoury on the finish, has great savouriness and length, characterised by the use of wood, which helps to overcome the lack of density, almost peppery nuances in the aftertaste, ripe heart cherry in the back, certain ageing potential for many years.

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.
