| Over het wijnhuis | Château Calon-Ségur is een 3e Grand Cru Classé en het oudste wijngoed van Saint-Estèphe met roots die teruggaan naar 1147. Door de eeuwen heen hebben verschillende eigenaren de revue gepasseerd, maar als we er één moeten uitlichten is het wel de Markies de Ségur, een belangrijke speler in de geschiedenis van Bordeaux. Niet alleen bezat hij top-châteaux, waaronder Lafite Rothschild en Latour, ook was hij verantwoordelijk voor het hartvormige logo van Calon-Ségur. |

| Awards | "Blended of 55% Merlot and 45% Cabernet Sauvignon aged 17 months in 30% new French oak, the 2016 Le Marquis de Calon-Ségur has a deep garnet-purple color and gives up gregarious scents of chocolate-covered cherries, black raspberries and cassis with hints of violets and cinnamon stick plus an underbrush hint. The palate is medium to full-bodied, firm and grainy with a good core of layered black fruits and a perfumed finish." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate "Plenty of beautiful aromas of blackcurrants, blackberries and hints of spice and cedar. This is very fine-grained with medium body and a delicious finish. Savory and fine and so delicious. Second wine of Château Calon Ségur. Try from 2022." - James Suckling "The 2016 Le Marquis de Calon Ségur is just as gorgeous from bottle as it was from barrel. The high percentage of Merlot comes through beautifully in the wine's succulent, racy personality. Raspberry jam, mocha, white flowers, spice and blood orange all race through this succulent second wine from Calon Ségur. Best of all, the 2016 will be ready to drink upon release. Tasted three times." - Vinous "This has a solid core of dark plum and blackberry fruit laced with subtle alder and tobacco notes. Delivers a smoldering charcoal hint on the finish, though this red is open, fleshy and accessible in feel. Drink now through 2030. 11,667 cases made." - Wine Spectator "With its rich tannins, this second wine of Calon-Ségur is powerful in its own right. Full of black, juicy fruits, the wine is generous and also has great freshness at the end. It likely will be ready to drink from 2023." - Wine Enthusiast |
