Producer Profile
Château Phélan Ségur, Cru Bourgeois Saint-Estèphe
Château Phélan Ségur is a Cru Bourgeois in Saint-Estèphe, which made its name under the guidance of Frank Phelan, the son of an Irish merchant, Bernard O'Phelan, who settled in Bordeaux and married into the Guestier family. Frank Phelan even became mayor of Saint-Estèphe and the Château Ségur added his surname to its own at the start of the 20th century.
Owned since the 1980s by the Gardinier family, the estate has 70 hectares of clay-gravel soils adjoining Calon-Segur and Montrose. Despite being approachable in just five or six years, Phélan Ségur is known for being long-lived.

Tasting Notes"Unwinding in the glass with aromas of cherries, crème de cassis, sweet berries and spices, framed by creamy new oak, the 2022 Phélan Ségur is medium to full-bodied, rich and concentrated, with plenty of sweet fruit and chewy structuring tannin. It's a persuasive Saint-Estèphe in a more modern, extracted style. 91-93 points" William Kelley, RobertParker.com------"Loads of fruit here. Energetic, with layers of tannins. Full-bodied. It builds at the end and opens like a butterfly. Hints of minerals and iron. Best ever? 56% merlot, 40% cabernet sauvignon, 2% cabernet franc and 2% petit verdot. 96-97 points" jamessuckling.com |
