    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.

    In The Vineyard
    Blending : 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 42% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc. April to June: cool temperatures until mid-June. Rainfall in April and June was 35 and 42 mm above normal for these two months. Early bud burst and flowering. July to September: change in the weather from the end of June, making way for hot and dry conditions (marked out by storms and heatwaves). Absence of major water stress thanks to our clay-gravel terroir. Grapes harvested in a perfect state of health.
    Ruby red dress with purple highlights. A great complexity nose with aromas of ripe fruits (cherry, black-current, blackberries ...) and toasted and liquorice notes. In the mouth, the remarkable thickness in attack goes perfectly with the fleshy and crunchy fruit of the middle of the mouth. This harmonious blend remains in tension thanks to a beautiful freshness at the end of the tasting and a great aromatic persistence. A generous vintage with exceptional tannic power supported by a volume of rare density. Château Phélan Ségur 2019 combines freshness and power.
