The Marquis de Calon Ségur 2021 is a true reflection of its esteemed appellation, hailing from the renowned Château Calon-Ségur in Saint-Estèphe, Bordeaux. This vintage exudes a deep ruby colour, hinting at the richness to come. On the nose, sumptuous aromas of blackberry, cassis and black cherry mingle with delicate notes of cedar, tobacco and a touch of earthiness. The palate is full-bodied and velvety, with ripe tannins and a perfect balance of fruit and oak. Dense layers of black fruit, dark chocolate and spice dance on the tongue, leading to a long, satisfying finish. This wine is a testament to the winemaking expertise of the estate, and will surely reward those who have the patience to cellar it for a few years. A true gem of the 2021 vintage.
Winemakers Notes
The estate’s Second Wine offers a different interpretation of the Calon terroir. With an average of 75% Merlot in the blends, Le Marquis de Calon Ségur is totally distinct from the First Wine.
“It benefits from a true expression of its own”, underlines Vincent Millet. “The plots are separated out from the beginning.”
Le Marquis de Calon Ségur provides immediate enjoyment, warmth and a velvety texture. It is carefully aged generally for 17 months in oak barrels, a third of which are new. Deliciously easy-drinking, silky and expressive, its charm comes to the fore, while at the same time bringing to our minds the elegance of the Grand Vin.
