title: Château Phélan-Ségur 2012  Saint-Estèphe
description: As is often the case with Phélan Ségur, there is an excess of wood in this wine. Sometimes it works, as here, because the big, bold fruits are powerful enough to match the toastiness. That suggests a future as a ripe, black-fruited and structured wine with room for juicy acidity. Drink from 2019.
variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend
