Description

Product details

Le Marquis de Calon Ségur Saint-Estèphe Médoc Bordeaux Red Blend 2020 is a refined second wine from the esteemed Château Calon Ségur estate. With a distinct identity of its own, this blend features a dominant 75% Merlot, offering a smooth and velvety texture, setting it apart from the estate’s Grand Vin. Aged for 17 months in oak barrels, a third of which are new, the wine exudes charm and immediate appeal with its silky, easy-drinking nature. Its expressive profile showcases warmth and elegance, making it a delightful choice for those seeking a more approachable interpretation of the Calon terroir.

Tasting notes reveal a broad and fresh palate, with damson plum and black cherry flavors gliding effortlessly, enhanced by hints of violet and a subtle iron undertone. The wine’s firm tannins and ripe black fruits add to its structure, giving it the depth and density typical of Saint-Estèphe wines. While approachable now, Le Marquis de Calon Ségur promises even greater complexity with time and is best enjoyed between 2027 and 2030, offering a perfect balance of elegance and power.
