The 2014 vintage is rated 94/100 by N.Martin "The 2014 Calon Ségur has a fresh and vibrant nose, a little backward and moody, but there is concentration here, just nicely coiled at the moment. There are hints of iodine and sea spray present. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe, juicy tannins, quite dense and fleshy, but there's a huge weight and backbone to it that I think will mature it in style. " (February 2024)
