2013 Château Rauzan-Ségla, Margaux, Bordeaux

Description

Lots of red cherries on the nose with a touch of oak, crunchy fresh fruits on the approach, the wine is not too powerful but very elegant and fresh. There some acidity on the finish but the tannins are very ripe and gentle and the wine will not doubt integrate during the ageing. Rauzan offered its wine last year at a substantial discount which made it the most Popular wine of the 2012 campaign. With the strength of the brand, a good release price should make this an attractive purchase.  Good effort.

Critics reviews

Neal Martin MW 90/100
The 2013 Rauzan-Segla has an elegant bouquet with blackberry and briary scents as well as a subtle violet scent that gently unfurls in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with quite an attractive, pastille-like entry, decent weight in the mouth with a harmonious, nonchalant, quite detailed finish that will leave you wanting another sip. If you insist upon a Margaux from this vintage - here is where to come.Neil Martin - 28/10/2016

About this wine

Chateau Rauzan-Segla

Château Rauzan-Ségla and Mouton Rothschild were considered the leading 2emé Cru Classé Bordeaux properties during the 19th century. However, while the fortunes of Mouton prospered in the 20th century, culminating in its elevation to 1er Cru status in 1973, Rauzan-Ségla`s reputation dwindled and a succession of disappointing wines were produced.
