The Winemaker
Jean-François Delon
Located to the east of Saint-Estèphe, Château Ségur de Cabanac looks proudly out over the Gironde estuary. The vines are planted on one of the best gravelly hilltops in the appellation and produce an extremely complex, powerful, tannic wine which is elegant and refined.
