Chateau Phelan Segur 2012 (Half Bottle) 375ml
Product Details
The Chateau Phelan Segur appears intense and lively with ruby reflections in the glass. The nose is rich with notes of red fruits (strawberry, cherry) blended with subtle smoky and liquorice aromas. The delicate and delicious palate is supported by an unprecedented richness of taste. The wine is harmonious, it shows a perfect balance between the fat and sweetness of the Merlot and the powerful tannins of the Cabernet Sauvignon. A vintage characterised by its concentration, the intensity of the flavors and the quality of the tannins.
The Grand Vin of Château Phélan Ségur comes from this magnificent terroir of Saint-Estèphe where power dominates. Strengthened by its origins, Château Phélan Ségur has created its identity based on elegance and finesse. With a certain restraint and great precision, it reveals the purity of the fruit, the accuracy of its structure, the silkiness of its tannins, all with a natural freshness. After long ageing, it reveals a bouquet of a rare complexity, the oak harmoniously integrated. This subtle and authentic balance creates an intense emotion. Château Phélan Ségur is known for its potential to age over several decades. An old vintage opens new aromatic horizons with an unexpected richness: the warmth of spices, the generosity of ripe fruits and the nobility of leather. Its texture is refined, its power is calmed. This fullness is a testimony to the passage of time and this blossoming is the reward of astute patience. Exceptional vintages born of the generosity of Nature transcended by the talent of man. Beyond these undisputed landmarks, there are vintages dear to the team at the Château. They are witnesses to the life of the property and the expression of great emotions.
53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 47% Merlot.
Wine Enthusiast Review:
As is often the case with Phélan Ségur, there is an excess of wood in this wine. Sometimes it works, as here, because the big, bold fruits are powerful enough to match the toastiness. That suggests a future as a ripe, black-fruited and structured wine with room for juicy acidity. Drink from 2019. -R.V.
