Chateau Rauzan-Segla

Case Format: 75cl

Max score: 92

Drink To: 2021-2031

A moment of pure pleasure; an enchanted parenthesis stolen from time and the little hassles of everyday life, drinking a glass of Segla is the promise of all this and many other things. Segla, Margaux was first born under a lucky star, that of a craftsmanship sublimated by the incessant contributions of modernity. Over the years, Segla has been able to develop its own personality, fiery like this fruity feeling that takes you away from the first sip.

Antonio Galloni

The 2016 Segla is sexy, racy and inviting, all qualities found in the Grand Vin, but naturally on a smaller scale. Silky tannins and soft, pliant, red-toned fruit all add to the wine's early appeal. There is so much to like in this expressive, open-knit second wine from Rauzan-Segla. As always, Segla is sold only in bottle (not en primeur) and offered to the market with a few years of bottle age, when the estate believes the wine is starting to drink well. Segla is a blend taken mostly from satellite parcels, along with younger vine fruit from the chateau's core holdings.

The 2016 Segla had been blended for a month when I tasted it with the exception of 14 experimental barrels. It comprises of 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 53% Merlot with 1% each of Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc, matured in 20% new oak. It has a very polished and quite opulent bouquet with kirsch, blackberry, a touch of glycerine and just a hint of menthol. The palate is medium-bodied with very supple tannin, silky smith in texture with a dash of spice on the back palate, and a compact but long finish.

Tasted blind. Rich and rather opulent nose. Simple and easy with good refreshing raciness. Could be Rauzan-Segla? Good and complete. Really zesty. Likely to be VGV.
