CRITIC REVIEWS
Neal Martin
The 2006 Rauzan-Segla has to follow the barrel sample of the 2025, and you can see the difference insofar as this does not have the same bandwidth or mineral complexity. The bouquet is more conservative with blackberry, soy and light brown spice notes. The palate is medium-bodied with furry tannins and fine acidity, nicely balanced without any of the medicinal notes I found elsewhere. Drinking perfectly now.

Deep garnet in color with a touch of brick, the 2006 Rauzan-Segla gives up dusty earth, sandalwood, cigar and Indian spices scents with a core of mincemeat pie, prunes and dried mulberries plus a waft of dried roses. Medium-bodied, firm and chewy, it has bags of freshness supporting the muscular core of evolved, spicy fruit, finishing minerally. The blend this year is 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 44% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot, harvested between September 21st and October 7th, at an average yield of 52 hectoliters per hectare. It was aged for 18 months in French oak, 50% new. The alcohol is 13%.

Very fresh nose underpinned by lovely evolution and complexity (a quality in short supply at this tasting of 2014s plus one other usually young vintage). Very pretty and very Margaux. Delicate.
