Calon Ségur – a vertical

This tasting of wines straight from the château in November 2001 in Paris provided an opportunity to compare past performance with this property's stunning 2000. There was an impressive consistency with structured wines of notable freshness and the 1947 was really something. Even the co-owned cru bourgeois Ch Capbern Gasqueton showed something of this firm sticking to its last, especially the 2000 (17 points and drink '08-'15) and 1995 (16 points and drink '05-'12) which were richer than the vintages in between.
