The Calon Ségur 1986, Third Grand Cru Classé of Saint-Estèphe, draws its character from clay-limestone soils. Its aromas of cedar, tobacco and dark fruits are paired with a firm and mineral palate. Perfect for aging, it accompanies game and rich dishes with finesse.
Nestled at the heart of Saint-Estèphe, this historic estate has embodied the Médoc spirit since the 12th century, combining tradition and exacting standards.
- Terroir : Gravelly and clay-limestone soils of the Saint-Estèphe appellation, imparting a well-structured body and a distinctive minerality to the wines.
- Vinification : Rigorous aging in oak barrels, favoring a balance between power and elegance, for age-worthy cuvées.
Tasting notes for Château Calon Ségur 1986
- To the eye : Deep garnet robe with tawny highlights, of a silky density and a brilliance preserved by time.
- On the nose : Aromas of dried cedar, blonde tobacco, wild blackberry and undergrowth, lifted by a saline touch and a hint of graphite.
- On the palate : A precise and taut attack, where well-integrated tannins, lively acidity and chalky minerality intertwine, leading to a long and harmonious finish.
Serve at 16–18°C in a Bordeaux glass to release its full complexity.
