The Le C De Calon Segur 2020 from Château Calon-Ségur in Saint-Estèphe, Bordeaux, France is a true representation of the terroir and expertise of this renowned estate. With a deep ruby hue, this wine exudes elegance and complexity from the moment it is poured. On the nose, aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, and dark cherry mingle with hints of cedar, tobacco, and a touch of earthiness. On the palate, this wine is full-bodied and well-structured, with silky tannins and a long, lingering finish. Flavors of ripe plum, cassis, and black pepper are complemented by notes of toasted oak and a subtle minerality. This vintage showcases the potential for this wine to age gracefully, but can also be enjoyed now with decanting. A must-try for any lover of Bordeaux wines.

Replantings and an upgrade of the winery and cellars, has resulted in the gradual recognition of this oft-overlooked wine producer. The upgrades have helped fine tune wines that are produced from potentially stunning fruit, sourced from a vineyard that sits on gravel between Batailley, Lafite-Rothschild and Mouton-Rothschild in Pauillac. The blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot spends time in mostly older wood and is known for its juiciness, fleshy texture and ability to be drunk at a relatively young age.

This is one of the gems produced by cult winemaker Elian Da Ros, who learned the art of winemaking at the prestigious Domaine Zind Humbrecht in Alsace before taking over the family vineyard. This luscious red is a blend of half Cabernet Franc, with the rest a split between Merlot and Syrah and matured for 18 months in old oak. Drink young for the sheer enjoyment.
