Château Calon-Ségur 2005, St-Estèphe 3me Cru Classé (12)
Château Calon-Ségur 2005
St-Estèphe 3me Cru Classé
(1 lightly torn, 2 lightly bin-soiled and 11 lightly scuffed labels)
owc
1 dozen bottles
"Deeply pitched aromas of black raspberry, black cherry, leather, smoked meat, earth and menthol. Chewy, brooding and deep, with concentrated black cherry, menthol, mineral and leather flavors framed by a powerful spine of acids and tannins. Really saturates the palate on the tannic back end. I'd give this classic St. Estephe a decade of aging, at which time this wine may well merit an even higher score." (92pts Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 2008)
