Calon Segur 1955
A very good, somewhat underrated yet useful vintage. **** Michael Broadbent
A good '55. First tasted in 1959. Full, fruity and, for a St Estephe not too tannic. At best ***.

A couple of recent cellartracker notes:

Small Post-Tasting Chablis Dinner...Then More Wine with Friends (GT Fish & Oyster - Chicago IL): Popped and poured. Black fruit well balanced with earthy, mushroom aromas and shiny of liqueur. Slightly more mushroomy flavors with good balance. Moderate depth and intensity, but lots of character and enough basic pleasure.

Drank at Bern's during a business dinner, so impressions more than notes.On opening, surprisingly youthful, then evolved in a fascinating way. At first, could have passed for the 2002 I've been drinking from 375, with a wonderfully complex nose and plenty of fruit. After an hour of decanting, it was dominated by mushrooms and earth, and I feared it was falling apart. But that was temporary, and the last glass was the best with fruit, earth and crushed stone. A treat to drink a bottle that was made when my wife and I were in diapers.
