Tasting notes
Medium intense ruby, lovely ripe fruits, touches of heady high alcohols, but this is impressive in its construction and intensity. Eric Boissenot consultant, 30% new oak. Owned by Jean-François Delon, this is a low key 7ha estate that turns out consistently unfussy enjoyable wines. Manual harvest.

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Segur de Cabanac gives up cassis, blackberries and black cherries on the nose with wafts of chocolate box and roses. The palate is medium-bodied, elegant and fragrant with a chewy texture and an herbal lift.
