The 2017 Le Marquis de Calon-Ségur, bottled in May 2019, offers attractive blackberry, raspberry coulis and light briary aromas on the nose, which is well defined. The palate is very Pauillac in style with graphite-tinged black fruit, reflecting the higher percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon now used in the blend. This will form delightful drinking over the next 5 to 8 years.Inc. TAX€446.16 -

The 2019 Le Marquis de Calon Ségur is a terrific second wine. Ample, bold and dramatic, the 2019 packs a huge punch. Black cherry, plum, new leather, graphite and incense build as this flamboyant, opulent Saint-Estèphe shows off its considerable allure.

(12x75cl) 2000Lilian Ladouys 2000 exemplifies the pinnacle of Bordeaux craftsmanship, meticulously produced in the esteemed Pauillac appellation.

The 2000 vintage reveals a profound bouquet of blackcurrant, cedar, and tobacco, leading to a full-bodied palate with velvety tannins and a lingering finish. Under the esteemed stewardship of Lilian Ladouys, a family-owned estate renowned for its dedication to quality and sustainability, this wine stands as a testament to enduring elegance and sophistication.

The 2017 Lilian Ladouys is matured in 40% new oak from five cooperages. The bouquet is quite intense with brambly red berry fruit, touches of mint and undergrowth, melted tar emerging with time in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain tannins, and a fine bead of acidity. A "correct" and quite precise Saint-Estèphe that appears to have improved in bottle. Recommended.Inc. TAX€234.26 -
