CHATEAU CALON SEGUR, 2009

SAINT-ESTEPHE

All wines of CHATEAU CALON SEGUR - All wines of Bordeaux - All wines

"The 2009 vintage contains the highest percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon (90%) ever included in a Calon-Ségur (the remainder being Merlot and Petit Verdot). Completely different from its counterparts in Saint-Estèphe, it is more closed and structured with a dense purple color, numerous notes of black cherry, blackcurrant, clayey soil, underbrush, and spices, incredibly high levels of tannins, as well as a wonderful inner core of sweetness and concentration. It could behave like the 1982 vintage, which at 30 years is just beginning to reach maturity. The 2009 is an uncompromising, masculine, and massive wine, requiring 15 to 20 years of aging, even in this sumptuous, vibrant, and flamboyant vintage. It is very tight and demands a lot of patience, decanting, and aeration. Expected maturity: 2025-2050+." - Robert Parker

History and anecdotes
If Calon refers to the boat used in the Middle Ages to transport wood from one bank of the Garonne to the other, Ségur comes from Marquis Nicolas-Alexandre de Ségur, who was also the owner of the Châteaux Lafite and Latour. “I make wine at Lafite and Latour, but my heart is at Calon,” he used to say. At the end of the 19th century, the Capbern-Gasqueton family acquired the estate, which was purchased in 2012 by the Arkéa group and its subsidiary Suravenir.
