- Rate this wine
Château Segue-Longue Monnier is a small estate located in the northern part of the Médoc. The vineyard is being converted to Biodynamic agriculture, which is not that common in Bordeaux! The 2009 is a medium-bodied wine, nose of spices and undergrowth, round and fine tannins. Lovely long finish of dried fruits. Regularly praised by critics and winner of several awards, it’s a little gem we highly recommend!

 | What experts say | ||||||
 | 16/20 "This property is being converted to organic viticulture apparently. Brilliant crimson. Already quite a broad panoply of aromas though not one of the most dense on the palate. Very lively and vivacious - almost fizzes with excitement. Still a bit chewy on the finish but excellent integrity." | ||||||
 | "Aged in a resolutely modern circular cellar, this 2009 is the product of a work in the vineyard and cellar that follows the rules of biodynamics (certification in progress). If the nose is somewhat dominated by barrel-ageing (spices, undergrowth), the rest of the tasting reveals a wine with fine and round tannins, the pleasant finish of is accompanied by a touch of dried fruit . Try it in a year or two on a hare stew." | ||||||
