Wow. Wine of the day. After Montrose, Calon Segur, and Cos D'Estournel, this is simply outstanding. — 11 years ago
Subtle and delicate. Eucalyptus and menthol notes, inherent in saint estephe, I've found. Love this second wine from phelan segur — 11 years ago

2nd wine of the night. Completely differen than our 1st. I kept myself wanting to go back to Calon Segur but alas there was now to be had. This had dark fruit., big Cab and a rather short finish. Very good but not awesome tonight. — 9 years ago

2000: 15 year old CD-R villages tasting tasty. Dark and heady, black fruit, figs, raisins, chocolate, leather, meaty, some aniseed notes. Softened, no grip or acidity. Ready and open but complex, in the dried fruit spectrum, rum & raisin. — 10 years ago
My fav bordeaux of the night but others preferred the '85 calon segur...this was lightsr and more elegant, and more ready to drink but will still hold for several more years. Great mature old boots, leaves and mushroom with a kiss of cassis still hanging around...very well balanced, well oaked classic bordeaux. — 10 years ago

Chateau Calon-Segur

Great for dinner or just to have a glass on the couch with a movie. I would honestly take this basically any time I want a glass of red. Full bodied, on the dry side, and not too sweet/juicy. — 9 years ago
The value wines. £10, delivering loads of up front spice and great for bbq or even a rich bourguignon. — 9 years ago

Oenomaniacs don't have pearly gates, we have Domaine de la Romanee Conti La Tache 1990. Outrageously sexy, with a celestial perfume of asian spices and underbrush and dried cherry. Eternal finish that tattoos itself on your tongue and palate. Medium to full-bodied, with startling freshness and grip for a quarter-centurion. La Tache 1990 will enthrall for another 30 to 50 years.
