Château Calon-Ségur is the most northerly of the Médoc Grands Crus Classés and is renowned for wines with excellent depth of fruit and superb length. 2010 is a Cabernet Sauvignon dominant blend with smaller amounts of Merlot and Petit Verdot making up the remainder. Displaying a wonderfully black fruited profile with herbal nuances and velvety tannins.

The 2010 Calon-Ségur has a slightly gamey bouquet, vibrant and energetic with plenty of red and black fruit. This appears to gain complexity with aeration, revealing hidden facets with each swirl of the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, a fine bead of acidity and a really gorgeous, surprisingly fleshy but focused finish that exudes style and class. What a lovely wine. You could almost broach this now although I prefer to leave this a few more years. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners 10-Year On Bordeaux horizontal. Neal Martin1st April 2020

Pure, dark, vanilla-laced fruit but also a lovely leafy fragrance. Great combination of sweet ripe fruit and fresh fine tannins. Succulent and very long. (JH)
