Falstaff
Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarter Ockerrand. Mit einem feinen Nougattouch unterlegte reife Pflaumennote, schwarze Kirschen, zart nach kandierten Orangenzesten. Saftig, elegant und süß, reife Beerenfrucht, seidige Tannine, schokoladiger Abgang, mineralisch und komplex, bleibt sehr gut haften, bereits heute sehr trinkanimierend, ein toller Speisenbegleiter für die Zukunft.

Wine Advocate 
Displaying a very deep purple-black color, the 2019 Calon-Ségur strides confidently out of the glass with classic notes of warm cassis, blackberry preserves, pencil shavings and clove oil plus nuances of lilacs, cinnamon stick, chocolate box and menthol. The medium to full-bodied palate is packed with tightly wound, muscular black fruits and loads of bright floral accents, framed by firm, fine-grained tannins and bold freshness, finishing long and graceful. 

Vinous
The 2019 Calon Ségur was cropped at 40hl/ha between 25 September and 9 October, underwent a 20-day cuvaison and matured entirely in new oak from nine cooperages. Like the second wine, it is initially closed on the nose, yet all it needs is five minutes for the aromas to burst from the glass with raspberry, bilberry, crushed violet and freshly rolled tobacco. The palate is the smoothest that I have ever encountered at this stage, silky and refined, framing the pure black fruit infused with minerals. This 2019 is a step up from the previous vintage, a Calon Ségur with newfound elegance and wind in its sails. Bon vin.
