Château Phélan Ségur’s St. Estèphe 2021 is a remarkable wine that reflects the tradition and innovation of the renowned winery. This wine consists of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Merlot and 4% Petit Verdot. Cabernet Sauvignon gives the wine structure and depth, Merlot brings fruitiness and softness, while Petit Verdot adds complexity and

spicy notes.

St. Estèphe 2021 shows a deep ruby red color. The bouquet unfolds aromas of dark berries, plums and cherries, accompanied by hints of rose petals, pipe tobacco, sweet spices and loamy soil. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with impressive depth, ripe tannins and lively acids. The aftertaste is long and salty

. The gravelly

and clay-rich soils, which offer ideal conditions for viticulture, are typical of this wine and the Saint-Estèphe wine-growing zone. The region’s continental climate, with cool winters and warm summers, contributes to optimal ripeness of the grapes. The aging process of wine involves long storage on the yeast, which contributes to the development of its complex aromas and silky texture. The 2021 vintage was challenging due to its cool and humid conditions, but resulted in wines with remarkable freshness

and precision.
