Marquis de Calon – Saint-Estèphe 2016 (75 cl) is the second wine from Château Calon-Ségur and an elegant expression of the excellent 2016 vintage. Here, you get the house's character and structure in a more accessible and approachable style.

The wine is primarily based on Merlot with Cabernet Sauvignon and smaller proportions of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, offering aromatic notes of blackcurrant, cherry, and plum, accompanied by cedar, spices, and a hint of graphite.

On the palate, it is medium-bodied and well-balanced with fine tannins, fresh acidity, and a juicy fruit profile. The finish is harmonious and persistent with classic Saint-Estèphe character.

The 2016 vintage is known for its precision and aging potential, and the wine can be enjoyed now or develop further complexity over the coming years.

92 /100

With its rich tannins, this second wine of Calon-Ségur is powerful in its own right. Full of black, juicy fruits, the wine is generous and also has great freshness at the end. It likely will be ready to drink from 2023. — Roger Voss

? /100

Plenty of beautiful aromas of blackcurrants, blackberries and hints of spice and cedar. This is very fine-grained with medium body and a delicious finish. Savory and fine and so delicious. Second wine of Château Calon Ségur. Try from 2022.

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.
