Château Phélan Ségur Saint Estèphe cb 2017 0,75l
Château Phélan Ségur is a leading estate in Saint-Estèphe, with vineyards on clay-gravel soils close to Montrose and Calon Ségur. The grand vin is based on cabernet sauvignon and merlot with small amounts of cabernet franc and petit verdot. Aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry and plum are joined by notes of licorice, herbs and gentle smokiness. On the palate the wine is medium- to full-bodied, with firm yet ripe tannins, fresh acidity and a cool, mineral finish. It is an ageworthy, elegant Saint-Estèphe that pairs beautifully with braised dishes, roast beef, lamb and savoury meat cuisine. With a few years of bottle age, its texture becomes even more velvety and complex.
Ageing in French oak adds structure and brings the powerful tannins into an elegant frame.
