Description

This Grand Cru Classé of Saint-Estephe was founded in the eighteenth century, it is the Marquis de Segur who gave his name to the second wine. One of the symbols of the chateau is of course its label with a heart, echoing the phrase of the Marquis “I make wine in Lafite and Latour but my heart is in Calon”.

This creamy and generous wine offers a unique freshness and opulence.

Wine Advocate : “The 2023 Le Marquis de Calon-Ségur is a blend of 50% Merlot and 48% Cabernet Sauvignon with the balance Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, incorporating the estate’s finest Merlot plots that generally go into the grand vin but which didn’t match with Calon’s best Cabernet Sauvignon lots this year. Offering up aromas of cassis, plums, burning embers and spices, framed by a deft touch of new oak, it’s medium to full-bodied, deep and structured, with impressive density and muscle, built for the cellar.”
