1996 Ch. Phelan Segur

This wine has deep purple colour with quite pronounced aromas of black cherry, damp earth, toast and smoke. It is dry with medium acidity and alcohol. Fuller than medium bodied with quite high fine-grained tannin. The flavour intensity is slightly over medium level. Black cherry, earth, dust and toast with fair long length with black plum finish. (90) Good typicity.

ST. ESTEPHE 的風格充分顯現出來，有一定發展和複雜性，果味及其他酒味亦合格，餘韻亦算長，但要多一點的複雜性及混合性才可以得到更好的評價。
