And now that famous saying lives forever on the label, where the drawing of a heart is prominently imprinted.Though Calon Segur dates as far back as 1147, which makes it a contender for the oldest property in Saint Estephe, it was Marquis de Segur who helped brand this iconic Medoc estate. As an important figure in Bordeaux history, de Segur held ownership of Lafite and Latour but also held a special place in his heart for Calon.Today, ownership has made great strides in implementing a serious program renovating the property which focuses on its wine making facilities. In following the trend to vinify on a parcel by parcel basis, the estate has replaced their old vats with new. The stainless steel tanks match each parcel of this large vineyard. The Left Bank estate produces on average close to 20,000 cases of its flagship each year. The wine is comprised of 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Petit Verdot. The terroir of this Grand Vin is rare and authentic; revealing both great delicacy and outstanding intensity. The magic of Calon is in this balance. The wine is aged in new oak barrels for 20 months, integrating the tannins of the oak with the tannins of the grapes harmoniously over time. This Cabernet Sauvignon expresses finesse without arrogance. The purity of the wine’s flavors, the delicacy of its texture, the greatness of its depth and length all come smashing through on the palate. Elegance is to be found everywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chateau Calon-Segur","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68103649100000,"sku":"132491","price":299.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/files\/chateau-calon-segur-saint-estephe-grand-cru-classe_1_0db28da8-52e3-4abd-a39f-1155f949aa16.jpg?v=1792698627","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/chateau-calon-segur-saint-estephe-grand-cru-classe-1999-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
