Sometimes you take things for granted; it is only when people does something a little out of the ordinary that you realize that there is no reason why this should not be the case. In this context, the heart shape which encloses the name of the Chateau was such a familiar sight that one tends to forget it, especially in relation to romantic matters. It was only when some one posted a picture of Calon-Segur on Facebook as their Valentine wine last year that the label could be interpreted this way. Well I suppose, given that the heart on the label was because the owner, Marquise de Segur, declared that his heart was at this chateau even though he also owned Lafite and Latour at the time, having this wine at Valentine Day is as reasonable a choice as any.
