Château Phélan Ségur Saint-Estèphe AOC
Château Phélan-Ségur is a St Estèphe property that produces textbook meaty, solid and long-lived St Estèphe. Founded by Irishman Bernard O’Phelan, the estate was developed by his son, Frank, and renamed Phélan Ségur in the early 20th century. It was bought by Xavier Gardinier in 1985 and run by his sons, Thierry and Laurent until 2018, when Philippe Van de Vyvere bought the property.
2013 saw an extremely wet, cool spring. And a dry summer. September was less rainy in the St Estèphe appellation than in the rest of the Médoc, enabling to wait for optimal ripeness and to harvest the grapes with a relatively relaxed attitude.
