The Story

Fifty-five hectares (136 acres) at the time of the 1855 classification, fifty-five hectares today: the estate is a rare example of consistency of terroir over the centuries.

The vineyard is made up of one single block adjacent to the village of Saint-Estèphe. Unique in the Médoc, it is completely surrounded by a stone wall. Inside, closest to the château, this “enclos” groups together the most famous plots of Calon.

There are very few ge...

Vuosikerta 1945

The best vintage in the world – 1947 or 1945? Tastingbook has tasted all the best wines from these two great vintages.

If wine producers from different regions were asked to name the best vintages in their wine history, most would name 1947 or 1945 as one of the greats. If we then compared them, there would probably only be one vintage that most, if not all, producers had named on the list – 1947.

We wanted to test this theory and we tas...

This is one of our much-loved Châteaux and the vintage is not bad either. We opened this bottle to celebrate Christmas 2003, and it was the best Calon-Segur 1945 we have ever tasted (tasted 10 times previously). It was Château-bottled and level was top shoulder.Dark colour to the rim. Delicate, yet an intensely clean, vigorous nose. Very full, long, and ripe on the palate with good fruit extract and backbone. Still tannic. A tremendous bottle!

Let’s also talk about the 1945 Calon Segur. In my humble opinion, 1945 is the greatest vintage of all-time; well, at least the 20th Century. It is stunningly great everywhere, and this Calon was no exception. Cedar, meat and new Chanel box dripped out of the nose, and its rustic edge gave a little pepperoni appeal. ‘Horse sweat’ and ‘aged leather’ came from the crowd, and there was great acidity and pinpoint balance to this stunning wine. This was a beautiful, and delicious, monster (97).

The 1945 Calon-Ségur is a vintage that I had never encountered prior to this magnum. Deep in color with just a touch of turbidity, it has a slight funk on the nose, though it is definitely not corked. Eventually it offers black fruit mingling with cedar, wild mint and freshly tilled soil, becoming increasingly peaty. The palate is well balanced with firm tannins that provide good backbone. There is a slight rigidity and rusticity about this Calon-Ségur, and at 74 years of age, unlike some of its peers, it is showing some dryness on the finish. It must have been a great wine in its prime, though in a larger format it seems that it is now past its peak. Tasted at Koala's 1945 dinner.

Calon Segur (magnum) 1945 – in advanced age, old aromas, some truffles, the fruit is decreasing and I don’t believe this wine will last any longer. 2-3 more years perhaps? 87p.
