2018 Château Phélan Ségur Saint-Estèphe red
Description
Château Phelan Ségur wines have their origins in a magnificent Saint-Estèphe terroir where power prevails. Strengthened by its origins, Château Phelan Ségur has created its identity based on elegance and finesse. With a certain restraint and great precision, it reveals the purity of its fruit, the precision of its structure and the softness of its tannins, all with a natural freshness. After long ageing, it reveals a bouquet of rare complexity and harmoniously integrated. This subtle and authentic balance creates an intense emotion.
The 2018 Phélan Ségur is composed of 57% Cabernet Sauvignon and 43% Merlot. It presents a deep purple colour, with vibrant aromas of crushed blackberries, blackcurrant jam and kirsch, combined with subtle menthol and lavender notes. The medium-bodied palate delivers elegance and impressive vivacity with fine tannins, finishing long and fresh.
