2022 Château Calon Ségur Magnum

The 2022 Château Calon Ségur Magnum is a striking Saint-Estèphe release from one of Bordeaux’s most historic estates, presented here in the impressive magnum format for added cellar presence and ageing potential. Known for its famously elegant yet firmly structured style, Calon Ségur combines deep Cabernet-driven character with the class and precision that have made the château a benchmark in the northern Médoc.

Tasting Notes
The 2022 vintage is expected to show a youthful, dark-fruited profile with a vivid, polished appearance and the concentration typical of a great Bordeaux year. On the nose, look for blackcurrant, blackberry, graphite, cedar, violets and subtle savory spice, all carried by the estate’s signature mineral edge. On the palate, the wine should be powerful yet refined, with ripe tannins, fresh acidity and a long, disciplined finish. The magnum format will help preserve freshness and slow development, making this an excellent bottle for long-term cellaring, where it should evolve beautifully over many years.

Production
Château Calon Ségur sits in Saint-Estèphe on Bordeaux’s Left Bank, where gravelly soils mixed with clay and limestone help produce wines of depth, structure and longevity. The estate’s vineyards benefit from a cooler maritime influence, which supports slow ripening and preserves freshness in the grapes. The 2022 vintage was vinified with a focus on preserving the purity of fruit and the estate’s classic framework, with careful selection throughout harvest and traditional Bordeaux winemaking methods aimed at balancing concentration with elegance. The magnum format further enhances the wine’s ageing trajectory.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with classic Bordeaux fare such as roast lamb, entrecôte, beef fillet, duck breast, or game dishes with rich sauces. It also works well with aged hard cheeses and truffle-infused dishes. Serve at around 16–18°C, and decant young bottles for 1–2 hours if opening now; for long-term cellaring, patience will be well rewarded.

Producer
Château Calon Ségur is one of the most respected estates in Saint-Estèphe and has a long history dating back centuries, making it among the oldest classified growths in the Médoc.
