John Gilman - 92 points
The 1989 Château Calon-Ségur is a very good example of the vintage that is now into its apogee and drinking with great style. The bouquet is a refined blend of black cherries, dark berries, Cuban cigar wrapper, dark soil tones, a touch of new leather, dried eucalyptus, gentle herb tones and cedar. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, complex and beautifully resolved, with a sweet core of fruit, lovely soil signature, melting tannins and lovely length and grip on the à point and classy finish.
