Wine Review: This dark red colored Bordeaux from Phelan Segur is very good. It opens with a flinty wet stone and black plum bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, balanced, smooth and elegant. The flavor profile is a mild mineral influenced black currant with notes of gentle black olive and hints of plum. The finish is dry and it moderate dusty tannins are well-controlled and appealing. This wine would pair well with a filet mignon. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Appearance: Intense and lively with ruby reflections. Nose: Rich with notes of red fruits (strawberry, cherry) blended with subtle smoky and liquorice aromas. The delicate and delicious palate is supported by an unprecedented richness of taste. The wine is harmonious, it shows a perfect balance between the fat and sweetness of the Merlot and the powerful tannins of the Cabernet Sauvignon. A vintage characterized by its concentration, the intensity of the flavors and the quality of the tannins.
