The Château Phélan Ségur 2021 from the Saint-Estèphe appellation in the Médoc region of Bordeaux, France, is a promising wine, showcasing the elegant complexity typical of this prestigious area. While the exact blend isn't specified, Saint-Estèphe wines often feature Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot prominently, known for their robust tannins and deep, dark fruit flavours. 2021 was a challenging year in Bordeaux, with weather conditions demanding careful vineyard management, which speaks to the skill and dedication of the winemakers. The Médoc terroir, with its gravelly soils and maritime climate, contributes to the wine's structure and aging potential. Château Phélan Ségur, with a history dating back to the early 19th century, has a reputation for producing wines with a balance of power and finesse.
For pairing, this wine would beautifully accompany roasted lamb or beef, with its tannins complementing the richness of the meat. A classic Bordeaux pairing would be a hearty beef bourguignon, where the wine's acidity cuts through the dish's fattiness, enhancing its flavours. Alternatively, regional dishes such as duck confit or a cheese platter featuring aged Comté or Brie de Meaux would resonate with the wine's profile.
To fully enjoy the Château Phélan Ségur 2021, serve it at a temperature of 16-18°C (60-64°F). Decanting the wine for at least one to two hours will allow it to breathe and reveal more nuanced aromas. During tasting, take a moment to appreciate the wine’s deep ruby colour. On the nose, there's likely to be a complex bouquet of dark berries, spices, and perhaps hints of earthy undertones. Finally, on the palate, expect a structured wine with well-integrated tannins and a lingering finish.
