Friday, January 12, 2018 - Rocking vintage for Calon-Segur. A no-doubter from the first sip. Deep inky blackberry fruit accented with pencil shavings, saturating and slick enough that you barely even feel the tannins. But it has the classic clenched grip of cabernet sauvignon and it gets its structure as much from this tensile sensation as anything else. Despite the intensity of its flavors it's lithe and even slender in form.
