2020 Calon-Ségur

Drinking at home.

2020 Calon Ségur - first taste 20 minutes after decanting. Nice and woodsy on the nose, with lots of vanilla, sweet black cherries, smoke, and pencil lead. Definitely sweet on the palate. After more than an hour in the decanter, the nose was showing a hint of green, but still got the pencil lead, and a bit of grilled meats. More than 1½ hours in, we got a little mint on the nose. There was a bit more acidity on the palate, and tannins got more grippy. Two hours after decanting, this was really fragrant and woodsy.

Bought from Altaya for EUR 91.
