James Suckling: Awarded 91 points, noting its sweet currant and black currant flavors with violet undertones. He described it as medium-bodied with fine, caressing tannins and suggested that a year or two of aging will enhance its qualities.

Wine Enthusiast Also gave 91 points, describing it as a fine reflection of the estate, rich with beautiful tannins and a creamy texture, featuring soft and generous blackberry fruits. Recommended drinking from 2028.


Tasting Notes:
 ​Le Marquis de Calon Ségur 2021, the second wine of Château Calon Ségur, is a blend of 58% Merlot and 42% Cabernet Sauvignon. It presents a medium-to-deep garnet-purple hue. The nose offers aromas of dark berries, plums, violets, and lilac. On the palate, it is medium-bodied, layered, and complete, featuring powdery structuring tannins that contribute to its serious, age-worthy profile. The wine`s freshness and vibrancy are complemented by flavors of red cherry, strawberry, raspberry, and grapefruit, with a pleasant, crisp bitterness. 

Food Pairing: Grilled Lamb Chops, Wild Mushroom Risotto
Case Bottles: 6

THE GRAPE

 

Cab.Sauvignon Blend

Cabernet Sauvignon lends itself particularly well in blends with Merlot. This is actually the archetypal Bordeaux blend, though in different proportions in the sub-regions and sometimes topped up with Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and Petit Verdot.

In the Médoc and Graves the percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend can range from 95% to as low as 40%. It is particularly suited to the dry, warm, free- draining, gravel-rich soils and is responsible for the redolent cassis characteristics as well as the depth of colour, tannic structure and pronounced acidity of Médoc wines. However 100% Cabernet Sauvignon wines can be slightly hollow-tasting in the middle palate and Merlot with its generous, fleshy fruit flavours acts as a perfect foil by filling in this cavity.

In St-Emilion and Pomerol, the blends are Merlot dominated as Cabernet Sauvignon can struggle to ripen there - when it is included, it adds structure and body to the wine. Sassicaia is the most famous Bordeaux blend in Italy and has spawned many imitations, whereby the blend is now firmly established in the New World and particularly in California and Australia.
