Whole bunch ferment, no punch downs, plunges, pump overs - just left to be and mellowed through winter in new French oak.
Ripe cherry and plum, with a hint of spice. Smooth tannins and a lingering finish.
"extraordinarily complex, nuanced, and layered." 96 points - Robert Parker
Chateau Ausone 2007 is a premier Grand Cru Classe "A" red wine from Bordeaux, France. It has a deep, intense color and a complex bouquet of black fruit, leather, and spice. The palate is full-bodied and elegant, with flavors of black currant, raspberry, and hints of tobacco and earthy notes. The tannins are fine and well-structured, and the wine has a long and persistent finish. This wine will pair perfectly with a variety of meats, including beef, lamb, and game.
Deep in color, the wine is powerful, rich gliding on refined tannins - undoubtedly a product of the Saint-Emilion terroir.

This is a wine that can be enjoyed now or aged for several years to come.
3rd wine of Château Calon Ségur - 65% Merlot, 34% Cabernet Sauvignon, 1% Petit Verdot
Lots of ripe red fruits and spices character on the nose. Juicy, fleshy, lovely notes of earth and sweet spices backing up the fruit, tannins and acidity. Long finish.
An integral member of the Calon Ségur family, the third wine exhibits a freshness and fruitiness geared for immediate enjoyment. It is mainly sourced from the estate's young vines with a balanced blend made up of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.
