The Story

Chateau Rauzan Segla, a historic Second Growth estate in Margaux owned by the Chanel family, produces quintessential Bordeaux blends celebrated for their perfect balance of power and exceptional elegance. Predominantly crafted from Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, these age-worthy red wines offer a luxurious, silky texture alongside vibrant notes of dark berries, cassis, and Margaux's signature violet aromas, which evolve gracefully over decades into complex layers of cedar, tobacco, and truffle.

Pair with classic roasted or grilled red meats, such as a herb-crusted rack of lamb or a rich beef Wellington.

98 Points - 

Aromas of blueberries and blackberries with walnuts and hints of tar that follow through to a medium to full body with plush and velvety tannins and a lovely, caressing mouthfeel. It closes up at the end. Extremely long, pure and structured. Classic 72% cabernet sauvignon, 26% merlot and 2% petit verdot. From organically grown grapes. Give this at least until after 2030 to open and come around.

96 Points - 

The 2022 Rauzan-Ségla is showing well in bottle, unfurling in the glass with aromas of dark berries and cherries mingled with licorice, burning embers and pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, ample and velvety, it's suave and seamless, with its dense core of fruit framed by powdery structuring tannins that lend a more evident backbone than it exhibited en primeur. As readers may remember, the 2022 is a blend of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 26% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot; and in 2022, the east-facing sides of the vines, which see the afternoon sun, were picked separately, along with anything that showed signs of stress.

96 Points - 

This is dreamy, with deliciously juicy mulberry and blackberry puree flavors that stream through, carried by a vivid mix of iris, violet and anise, along with a long, well-embedded iron note. As this airs in the glass, it gains a caressing feel and greater depth, ending with a long echo of warm earth. Beautifully done. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot.
