1996 Chateau Phelan Segur Cru Bourgeois
Frankrig / Bordeaux / Medoc / Haut-Medoc / Saint-Estephe Rouge
1996 Château Phélan Ségur Cru Bourgeois har en næsten sort farve. Kompleks bouquet og en fyldig fornemmelse i munden. De silkeagtige tanniner bibringer finesse, elegance og fylde til denne velafbalancerede Saint-Estèphe-vin.
Tom Cannavan tasted the young wine in 2000: "Very deep and dark ruby/crimson. Loaded with coffee bean, charry oak, and tobacco on the nose. Little violet notes too and some blackcurrant and plum fruit. Nice fruit on the palate which is quite cool and classy with grippy tannins. Medium-bodied, it has pretty good balance with integrated acidity. Good value, and with a touch more fruit would have been excellent".

51 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 43 % Merlot, 6 % Cabernet Franc.
