Château Calon-Ségur is the most northerly of the Médoc Grand-Crus Classés and is renowned for wines with excellent depth of fruit and great longevity. The 2001 is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc and is absolutely perfectly for drinking now. Overshadowed by the blockbuster vintage that preceded it, this offers a medium-bodied, elegant and fragrant wine, with ripe tannins, impressive fruit purity and a long, lingering finish.

The 2001 Calon-Ségur has a delightful bouquet, very pure and a little more vivacious than the preceding vintage, featuring lovely brambly red fruit, rose petals, autumn leaves and a touch of cigar box, all well defined and focused. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, a little more cohesive than the 2000, and slightly granular in texture, with a graceful, elegant and quite persistent finish. This is one of the few châteaux where it's difficult to choose between the 2001 and 2000. Drinking perfectly now. Neal Martin1st September 2021

The estate’s key varieties include Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, which are used to make superb, consistently excellent Bordeaux that rewards long-term ageing.
