  • Goedhuis, April 2015, Score: 92-94

    A star performer in the appellation of Margaux. Beautifully perfumed floral aroma, in the palate it oozes class. Structured, ripe and intense, there is a lovely breadth of fruit with many layers. Wonderfully long with a fine mix between zesty freshness and sweet intense berry fruits. One of the outstanding 2nd growths for the vintage.

  • Neal Martin, April 2015, Score: 90-92

    The Château Rauzan-Ségla 2014 is a blend of 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 42% Merlot, 1% Petit Verdot and 1% Cabernet Franc picked between 22 September until 16 October. It has a precise bouquet, nothing incredibly powerful with a touch of cold stone coming through with aeration. This is conservative even for this Margaux estate that usually keeps everything “controlled” out of barrel. The palate is medium-bodied with chalky tannin, crisp acidity, tensile and linear with sappy black fruit towards the finish. I was just seeking more substance to come through on the finish – it just does not quite deliver that knock out blow.

  • Antonio Galloni, April 2015, Score: 92-95

    The 2014 Rauzan-Ségla is shaping up to be a real jewel of a wine. Super-polished and silky throughout, the 2014 is all about nuance. Red cherry, red currant and mint open up in a translucent, beautifully delineated wine. Ferrous and savory notes follow as the wine blossoms in the glass, revealing its depth and resonance. All the elements fall into place in a gracious wine that is at once classically austere, yet also supple and highly expressive, with virtually no sensation of tannin and terrific overall balance.

  • James Suckling, March 2015, Score: 94-95

    A powerful and dense Rauzan with firm and chewy tannins that are polished and direct. Full body, yet the acid and tannin tension gives the wine impressive length. Will develop wonderfully.

  • Decanter, April 2015, Score: 93

    Very fine expression from start to finish: Cabernet black fruits with restrained ripeness, slightly smoky spice from the oak, and supple yet firm texture on the palate. Still a long way to go to show its really classy vineyard fruit, but a great future. Drink: 2019-2035

  • Matthew Jukes, May 2015, Score: 18+

    (56 Cabernet Sauvignon, 42 Merlot, 1 Petit Verdot, 1 Cabernet Franc) Dry, tannic and solid, this should be too strong and powerful to work, but the fruit just about manages to hold its own and, in spite of the raw tannins, it stays plummy all of the way to the finish. Impressive, full-bodied and daring, this is a typical Rauzan-Ségla with cavalier tannins and just the right amount of recklessness to captivate the aficionado.

  • Jancis Robinson, April 2015, Score: 17

    Dark crimson. Lifted and racy on the nose. Aérien, as they say. Quite ethereal. Far from heavy but sappy and appetising and well balanced. Really quite subtle. Attractively dry, but not drying, finish. Archetypal claret that lingers on the palate. The acid is only just not dominant, mind you. Drink 2023-2036

  • Tim Atkin, May 2015, Score: 95

    This Chanel-owned prooperty has produced a suitably stylish wine in 2014, but one that doesn’t sell at haute couture prices. In fact, it should be among the bargains of the vintage. Elegant, shimmering and silky, with balletic poise, mineral undertones and flavours of cassis, lead pencil and liquorice. Drink: 2020-30

  • Wine Spectator, March 2015, Score: 89-92

    Soft-edged, with plum and black cherry fruit, laced with light sandalwood and tea notes that linger through the supple finish, which gains some extra velvety layers of blackberry and anise with air.

Originating in the 17th century, Rauzan Sègla was created by Pierre de Mesures de Rauzan whopurchased large tracts of land which included neighbouring Rauzan Gassies, Desmirail and Marquisde Terme. Within a short period of time, Rauzan Sègla became high on collectors lists rivallingLéoville, Gruaud Larose and Mouton Rothschild. One of its followers included Thomas Jeffersonwho purchased several cases of the 1790 vintage. Over the years it was divided and sold on to various owners falling deeper and deeper into oblivion until the 1980s when its old, wooden vats were replaced with stainless steel and excellent clones of Cabernet Sauvignon replaced the tired Merlot. In 1994, the château was taken over by Chanel who have continued this drive for quality.Read less

Region

Margaux

Plump, silky and seductive are the words often used to describe wines from Margaux. Because of their style, they tend to be user friendly and more approachable when young. This is in part due to its terroir which is comprised of the thinnest soil as well as the highest proportion of chunky gravel in all of the Médoc. It drains well but also is it more susceptible to vintage variation. Margaux wines tend to have the highest proportions of Merlot within the core of the Médoc further adding to their ample roundness and openness. Margaux is home to the largest number of classified growths including its namesake first growth, Château Margaux, as well as third growths, Palmer and d'Issan.
