The estate’s Second Wine offers a different interpretation of the Calon terroir. Le Marquis de Calon Ségur provides immediate enjoyment, warmth and a velvety texture. It is carefully aged generally for 17 months in oak barrels, a third of which are new. Deliciously easy-drinking, silky and expressive, its charm comes to the fore, while at the same time bringing to our minds the elegance of the Grand Vin.
Blend: 56% Cabernet sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 7% Cabernet franc, 2% petit Verdot
