Chateau Calon-Segur, Saint-Estephe, France 2009 Lagrein Its long and balanced finish

Its long and balanced finish leaves an impression of serenity and depth

driving ripe and fresh

This 2019 wine is unusually perfumed and already approachable (atypical for most 2005 Medocs)

beautifully fragrant finish

though it seems drier than the Father

Chateau Calon-Segur, Saint-Estephe, France 2009 Lagrein Its long and balanced finishDelivers gorgeous aromas of blackberry, blueberry and licorice, with hints of tobacco and spice. Full bodied, offering a lovely texture and refinement. Very long and beautiful, with tangy acidity and lively fruit. A rich, yet very balanced, Calon. This is almost all Cabernet Sauvignon instead of the normal blend with 40 percent Merlot. 96 Pts Wine Spectator
