"2018 Rauzan-Ségla"

Depuis près de 400 ans, le 2ème Grand Cru Classé de 1855 château Rauzan-Ségla règne avec panache sur les terres de la très prestigieuse appellation Margaux, située sur la rive gauche de la région bordelaise.
Restructuration du vignoble, modernisation de la cave et de la cave, l’attention méticuleuse des propriétaires a permis au Château Rauzan-Ségla de se hisser au sommet des vins de son appellation.
L’adage dit que les grands terroirs « surveillent l’eau » et le Château Rauzan-Ségla est situé à proximité immédiate de la Gironde. Véritable mosaïque de terroirs, le vignoble du Château Rauzan-Ségla bénéficie d’un emplacement exceptionnel. Jouant un rôle de régulateur climatique, le fleuve est à l’origine des fameux graviers de Garonne déposés le long des berges qui permet de capter la chaleur du jour pour mieux la refléter la nuit tout en assurant une maturité optimale des vignes.

Outer quote mark Aromas of crushed blackberries and blueberries with dried flowers and bark, following through to a full body with a tight and powerful palate of beautiful fruit and chewy yet polished tannins that are compressed and impressive. Extremely linear and intense. Muscular, in a toned way. Yet it opens in the mouth at you taste it. Inner quote mark (3/2021)

Outer quote mark Reminding me of the 2016, the 2018 Château Rauzan-Segla reveals this beautifully fresh, complex bouquet that still has serious richness and depth. Based on 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, raised in 65% new barrels, it offers a dense purple hue to go with gorgeous notes of blackcurrants, spring flowers, cigar wrapper, and sandalwood. A quintessential Margaux with its spicy, complex, floral character, it's full-bodied and has a supple, elegant texture, no hard edges, a solid spine of acidity, and a great, great finish. This is a brilliant, heavenly 2018 to enjoy over the coming 30 years or more. Inner quote mark (3/2021)

Outer quote mark The 2018 Rauzan-Ségla is composed of 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot. The wine has 14% alcohol, and it was aged for around 18 months in barriques, 65% new. Deep garnet-purple colored, it comes galloping out of the glass with powerful, energetic scents of crushed black cherries, blackcurrant cordial and mulberries, plus suggestions of violets, star anise, chocolate mint and crushed rocks with a touch of tobacco leaf. The medium to full-bodied palate is jam-packed with taut, muscular black fruit layers, supported by firm, ripe, grainy tannins and bold freshness, finishing with fantastic length and loads of earthy sparks. This is a thoroughbred Margaux, for sure, possessing amazing power in a very sleek, sophisticated package. Give it 5-7 years in bottle to unlock all those earth, floral and mineral nuances and drink it over the next 40 years or more. An incredible achievement that adeptly sidesteps the potentially overwhelming stamps of this extreme vintage. Bravo to Technical Director Nicolas Audebert and the team at Rauzan-Ségla!
