Calon Segur 2004 Situated in Saint Estephe, Calon Segur is classified as a Third Growth and is the northernmost classed growth in the Medoc. At the end of the 17th Century, Calon passed into the hands of Nicolas de Seger - who also owned Latour and Lafite. However, he always said his ‘heart was with Calon’ - and the wine’s label today shows a drawing of a heart around the Chateau’s name.
Robert Parker: “This classically-styled claret did not merit an outstanding rating because it lacks sufficient concentration to compete with the estate’s top vintages. However, it offers a dark ruby/plum color, nicely evolved notes of roasted herbs, sweet cherries and currants, and loamy earth, medium-weight, light to moderate tannin, and an elegant style. If it puts on weight over the next few years, it may deserve a slightly higher score. Anticipated maturity: now-2018.” 89 points
