<p><em>"95-96 points. Long finish with serious structure. Vivid and refined. Class here. Very Bordeaux." - <strong>James Suckling <br /></strong>"94-96 points. Getting a legit "wow" in the notes, the 2020 Château Phélan Ségur looks to be another incredible wine from the team of Véronique Dausse. - <strong> Jeb Dunnuck <br /></strong>"94 points. This impressive Saint-Estèphe has great potential and might well represent the appellation's best value for money." - <strong>Decanter</strong></em></p> <p>Ét blandt flere Médoc-slotte med irsk islæt. Den prægtige bygning blev opført i 1860’erne af Frank Phelan, søn af slottets irske grundlægger Bernard Phelan. I 1985 blev Phélan-Ségur købt af Médoc-kenderen Xavier Gardinier, som på daværende tidspunkt var ejer af Lanson Champagne. Ambitiøse Gardinier var ikke sen til at investere i et helt nyt vineri samt en restaurering af slotsbygningen.</p> <p>Lanceringen af en 2. og 3. vin har løftet niveauet yderligere, for nu finder kun de fineste druer vej til slottets Grand Vin. Fra 1993-2018 har Phélan-Ségur været dygtigt ledet af Xaviers ældste søn, Thierry Gardinier, indtil slottet i fjor blev solgt til den belgiske skibsredder Philippe Van de Vyvère fra selskabet Sean-Invest. Med 40 ha nær Montrose og 25 ha nær Calon-Ségur er det intet under, at Phélan-Ségur i det seneste årti har haft Cru Classé-niveau.</p> <p>Ved køb af 6 flasker leveres vinen i original trækasse.</p> <p><strong>Anmeldelser af Chateau Phélan Ségur Saint-Estephe 2020</strong></p> <p><em><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>95-96/100 James Suckling</strong></span></em><br /><em>"Bright and perfumed with some chocolate, berry, sandalwood and cedar. Very elegant and fine, medium to full-bodied palate with very integrated tannins and refined, polished texture. The tannins melt into the wine. Long finish with serious structure. Vivid and refined. Class here. Very Bordeaux. 54% cabernet sauvignon, 42% merlot, 2% cabernet franc and 2% petit verdot."</em></p> <p><em><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>94-96/100 La Revue du Vin de France</strong></span></em></p> <p><em><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>94-96/100 Jeb Dunnuck</strong></span></em><br /><em>"Getting a legit "wow" in the notes, the 2020 Château Phélan Ségur looks to be another incredible wine from the team of Véronique Dausse. A blend of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon 42% Merlot, and the balance Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, it's a deep, almost inky-hued barrel sample offering gorgeous notes of crème de cassis, blueberries, damp earth, crushed violets, and graphite. With full-bodied richness, a round, layered texture, serious concentration, and building structure, this is the real deal and up with the gems in Sainte-Estèphe. While some wines show a softer, more forward style, this is firm, mineral-laced, and structured, and is going to reward a good decade of cellaring. The alcohol checks in at 13.5% with a pH of 3.7 and a whopping 88 for an IPT."</em></p> <p><em><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>94-95/100 Bettane &amp; Desseauve</strong></span></em></p> <p><em><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>94-95/100 Bernard Burtschy</strong></span></em></p> <p><em><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>94/100 Decanter</strong></span></em><br /><em>"The 2020 Phélan Ségur has a very intense and almost Pauillac-like nose of blackberry, pencil box and cedar aromas, complex and mineral-driven. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins and plenty of black fruit laced with cedar and tobacco, quite sturdy and conveying more substance than recent vintages.

Flowers, cigar wrapper, cedar, red currants, raspberries and red plums are all over the place in the nose and on the palate. The wine is long, balanced and refined. There is freshness, length and a crispy, silky quality to the texture on the palate and in the finish. Rich and balanced with the oak being already close to fully integrated.
