Note di degustazione
44 Merlot, 54.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 1.5% Petit Verdot. 70% new oak. 13.5% abv. Fragrant and inviting on the nose with smoky mineral notes alongside floral character. This is quite light for Rauzan Segla but it is fluid and flowing on the palate with fine-grained tannin and a linear finish. FINE+RARE

Inky purple in colour, deep and concentrated, on the palate this is full of cocoa bean, chocolate shavings, rich concentrated damson and plum fruits. Impressive, still young with the barest hiint of tertiary favours, this remains gourmet and succulent. I would give two to three hours in a carafe before drinking if approaching any time soon, and will age further. John Kolasa director.
The 2012 Rauzan-Ségla just comes across a little flat on the nose compared to the previous two wines. Mint-infused red fruit, allspice and a touch of liquorice, though a second bottle at the Bordeaux Index horizontal showed more chutzpah. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, fine depth, a toothsome Margaux with a dense, more muscular finish that should see it repaid with further cellaring. Tasted twice at Bordeaux Index's Ten Year-On tasting and blind at the Southwold Ten-Year On tasting.

The Chanel group purchased Margaux Second Growth Ch. Rauzan-Ségla in 1994. Under the iconic fashion house’s ownership and – since 2014 – the guidance of winemaker Nicolas Audebert, the estate has seen significant investment and rapidly become one of Bordeaux’s most desirable.
