Description

This third growth estate is the most northerly of all the Médoc Grand-Crus Classés, and is unique in the Médoc as the vineyards are in one single plot surrounded by tall stone walls. Winegrowing on the estate dates back to the 12th century, but the name was first seen in the 18th century, when the owner, Nicolas-Alexandre, the Marquis de Ségur (who also owned Châteaux Latour, Lafite and Margaux at the time) decided to add his name to the château alongside the word Calon, the name of the small boats that once transferred timber down the Gironde. As well as changing the name of the estate he also placed a heart on the label of his wine, after he famously stated: “I make wine at Lafite and Latour but my heart belongs to Calon.”
