In 1805, he acquired the Clos de Garamey located in Saint Estèphe and completed his first acquisition with the purchase of the Ségur de Cabanac estate in 1810.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Château changed owners several times afterwards, becoming the property of Xavier Gardinier in 1985, who undertook restoration work to give the property the lustre of its past. After more than thirty years at the head of the property, the Gardinier family passed the reins of the estate to Philippe Van de Vyvere, a great wine lover fulfilling one of his dearest dreams by taking over this prestigious vineyard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday the estate continues to be recognised as one of Saint-Estèphe's most consistent performers, prized for wines that combine density and structure with a distinctly polished, modern style.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Les Grands Chais de France","offers":[{"title":"3 x 1500 ml","offer_id":46091410571334,"sku":"29774732-Case - 3 x 1500 ml","price":650.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 x 1500 ml","offer_id":46091410538566,"sku":"29774732","price":229.8,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0269\/5177\/8374\/files\/93Bottlesdre.png?v=1785920639","url":"https:\/\/thevintageclub.sg\/products\/chateau-phelan-segur-saint-estephe-red-2016","provider":"The Vintage Wine Club Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
