Château Calon-Ségur--Vintage 1961
Saint-Estèphe, 3me cru classé
Levels: one bottom neck, one top and one mid shoulder; one nicked label, slightly depressed corks
"A wide spread of notes, 22 since 1967. Surprisingly, it developed relatively quickly though, to quote myself 'like a successful marriage, improved with age'. It was at its best in the mid-1980s. Coincidentally, my most recent note is of a Gloag's of Perth bottling first tasted in 1985. Now fully mature with warm orange tinge, and a deliciously cedary flavour and good length. Last noted Feb 1994. At best **** but doubtless tiring now MB, Vintage Wine
