Over het wijnhuis | Château Phélan Ségur is gevestigd in Saint-Estèphe, de noordelijkste appellatie van de Haut-Médoc. Het château heeft vele eigenaren gekend, maar de familie Gardinier, die het in 1984 kocht, heeft de wijnen naar een hoger niveau getild. In 2018 is het overgenomen door een Belgische zakenman, Philippe Van de Vyvere. |

Awards | "The 2015 Phelan Segur, a blend of 53% Cabernet Sauvignon and 47% Merlot aged in 50% new oak, is certainly one of the better offerings from the Saint Estèphe appéllation. For sure, the bouquet is restrained, kept on a leash, but it trots along with crisp blackberry and raspberry fruit, interwoven with an attractive pencil lead note. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe tannin. It is structured and quite bold, considering the storm that swept across the appéllation during harvest, clearly a lot of sorting here that engenders a clean and pure wine with appreciable mineralité and tension on the foursquare finish." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate "This has an air of authority with pristine red fruits, cassis and leafy aromas that lead to a palate with a powerful core of fine, long and fresh tannins. Plenty of ageing potential here. Try from 2025." - James Suckling "Tasted blind. Dark crimson. Neat, slightly wild-flower nose. Lots of interesting aromas and correct, if not thrilling structure on the palate. Creditable, though not one of the most glamorous 2015 St-Estèphes. Long. Easy to overlook." - Jancis Robinson "The 2015 Phélan Ségur has quite a bold nose that suggests a little more extraction than its peers. Quite generous in terms of fruit - tobacco-laced strawberry and red currant, a hint of saddle leather with time. The palate is medium-bodied with chalky tannin and a fine bead of acidity. Rather fresh and crisp although, it is missing a little complexity toward the straitlaced finish. I appreciate the balance and focus of this Saint-Estèphe and perhaps it just needs bottle age to manifest more...excitement. Tasted blind at the Southwold 2015 Bordeaux tasting." - Vinous "This spicy wine shows how far the estate has moved from its over-use of new wood. In this bottling, the wood is subtle and doesn't mask the rich fruit and the juicy acidity. It still has the structure of a Saint-Estèphe while keeping everything in good balance. Drink from 2024." - Wine Enthusiast |
