Tasting Notes

The 2017 Ségla is soft, open-knit and quite pretty, just as it was en primeur. Sweet red cherry, tobacco, dried flowers, mint and new leather all grace this very pretty, nuanced Margaux. Floral aromatics and silky tannins add to the wine's considerable immediacy. This is such a pretty and enticing wine, especially for medium-term drinking.

Score: 91

Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com Maturity: 2022-2032 01 March 2020

The 2017 Ségla has a deep purple core. The bouquet is very perfumed with red berry fruit laced with incense and potpourri aromas, just very faint metallic scents that dissipate with aeration and are replaced by marine/estuarine aromas (seaweed and brine). The palate is medium-bodied with good concentration for a Deuxième Vin: assertive blue and black fruit with a citric line of acidity. It needs a little more cohesion on the finish but that will come with 24-36 months of bottle age.

Score: 90

The medium to deep garnet-purple colored 2017 Segla (a blend of 50.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 46% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot and 0.5% Cabernet Franc) opens with fresh red and black currants, black raspberries and a touch of Provence herbs with hints of pencil lead and dusty soil plus a waft of spice box. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine, accessible tannins, great freshness and vibrant fruit, with a lively peppery lift on the finish.

Score: 88 - 90

This is very bright and fruity with purity and freshness. Medium to full body. Love the youthful beauty of this second wine from Rauzan-Ségla.

Score: 91 - 92
