CRITIC REVIEWS
Jane Anson
Attractive, carefully-extracted damson and black cherry fruit with austere tannins. This is a little drying on the finish, and is clearly impacted by the issues of the vintage, after a series of truly brilliant years at Phélan Ségur. Harvest September 29 to October 13. IPT 85. 55% new oak.

Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, the 2021 Phelan Segur leaps with vivacious scents of black and red currants, Morello cherries, and black raspberries, plus wafts of cardamon, cedar chest, and iron ore. Light to medium-bodied, the palate has plenty of vibrant red and black fruit layers with fine-grained tannins and an energetic finish.
