Tasted blind. A little overripe on the nose. Then some aggressive acidity on the palate so not well knit! (JR)

The 2015 Calon-Ségur has a gorgeous, fresh nose with raspberry and cranberry fruit, fine delineation and, as I wrote before, exquisite oak integration. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins. It's a little toasty at the moment, with good depth and a touch of allspice toward the dense finish. Perhaps this doesn't possess the complexity of the very top vintages from Vincent Millet, yet it has the legs to last many years. Tasted at the 2015 Ten-Year-On tasting at Bordeaux Index.
Captures the texture and power of great St Estèphe, with aromatic fragrant spice, blueberry and cassis fruit, and has plenty of joy to deliver. Great quality at the ten year point, just about ready to drink at this point but decades ahead. Crushed roses on the finish, lighter framed than the 2016 but this is a lovely wine. 100% new oak for ageing. Vincent Millet director.

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.
