Chateau Phelan Segur 2011

Avis professionnels

Winespectator (90)

This has good stuffing, with engaging plum, cassis and blackberry coulis flavors at the core, holding steady through the anise-studded finish, accented by hints of charcoal and violet. Reveals a pebbly accent at the very end, keeping this grounded.

Jancis Robinson (16)

Sweet, vanilla-laced cassis. Big, rich, spicy. A burly, honest wine – but even with the stay-away-from-me tannins, it has reasonable harmony and promise, though it needs to flesh out in the middle.

Rene Gabriel (17)

Rene Gabriel rates this wine 17/20 points.

Falstaff (91)

Delicate floral notes underlie black forest berry compote, a hint of cassis, and subtle tobacco nuances. Elegant, extract-sweet, delicately fruity, with very well-integrated tannins, a refined acidity, ripe fruit on the finish, and excellent aging potential.
