This collection was established in 1992, sparked by a flight of Chateau Margaux that included the landmark 1982 vintage. Between 1993 and 2000, the owner built the cellar through the SAQ Courrier Vinicole, acquiring 100–125 bottles of First through Fifth Growth Bordeaux annually as futures, while selectively adding premier 1980s vintages through special SAQ offerings. As the sole proprietor, he has ensured the wines remained in consistent storage within his brother’s cellar. Following the sale of his brother’s home, the owner is now offering these long-held bottles to the market. This offering represents a carefully curated, single-owner cellar with 100% SAQ provenance.
This is the tasting note for 1997 Chateau Calon Segur St Estephe from Robert Parker - A soft, weedy Calon-Segur, with a washed-out ruby color, herb, pepper, and earthy aromas, light to medium body, and low tannin, this 1997 should be consumed over the next 3-4 years.
