Note di degustazione
A beautiful wine, that tasted stunningly fresh, with blackberry, loganberry and crushed raspberry fruits, still deep in colour with fine tannins holding them in place. Campfire, tobacco, undergrowth and saffron come in waves as the palate unwinds, this is delicious, a wine that you miss as soon as it is finished. Opened and stood for four hours before being served, then carafed for 30 minutes. This bottle has never been recorked, but remained in the same spot in the Calon cellars since bottling in 1968.

This wine continues to hold on to life but it is living dangerously. It has a lovely, full-intensity bouquet of cedar wood and ripe fruit. Very satisfying on the palate, with good concentration and length, this is arguably the best Calon-Segur of the sixties. Anticipated maturity: Now. Last tasted, 1/87.
Informazioni sul produttore
Wedding gift lists traditionally include wine glasses or cutlery, but in 1718, Nicolas-Alexandre de Ségur, the owner of Château Lafite and Château Latour and president of the Bordeaux parliament, received a rather more impressive present: Château Calon.
