This is pleasant and inoffensive, and recognizable as Bordeaux. But the fruit is muted, and the tannins are also missing except for a green vegetal note.
This was a major disappointment, given the price and the reputation of the estate. (This is the second wine of Calon Segur.) There are many Cru Bourgeois from good vintages that offer much more enjoyment for less money.
