Omschrijving
Sinds 1983 wordt hier weer heel hard gewerkt aan de kwaliteit van de wijngaard. De kwaliteitskoers is uitgezet door o.a de Chanel-Groep (parfums en mode), die Rauzan-Ségla kochten en de algemeen directeur van Château Latour met de leiding belastte. De wijn is nu glorieus en binnen zijn herkomstbenaming alleen overtroffen door Château Margaux; massieve kleur, toastachtig hout (50%-60% nieuwe vaten) zijdeachtige en toch diepe tannines, elegante structuur en een delicieus aroma van fruit plus een vleugje viooltjes.

Robert Parker The 2022 Rauzan-Ségla is a beautifully sensual, charming wine, bursting with aromas of cherries, dark berries and plums mingled with hints of violets, sweet loamy soil and pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, it's fleshy and enveloping, with an ample core of vibrant fruit, supple tannins and a long, succulent finish. 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.

Vinous The 2022 Rauzan-Ségla was picked 2 to 28 September at 30hL/ha and matured for 18 months in 50% new oak. Nicolas Audebert told me that it contains 17% vin de presse which is slightly higher than normal, a combination of 150 separate vinifications. This has a very opulent bouquet with layers of black cherries, créme de cassis and violets. Perhaps just a little too decadent? The palate is medium-bodied with fine balance, grainy tannins, very pure and focused with quite a minerally finish. Long in the mouth. It's just missing that knockout blow at the moment, yet it's still a supremely well-crafted Margaux.

James Suckling The freshness and clarity of the fruit is really something with black currants and cherries. Brilliant. Full-bodied, layered and round with polished tannins. I like the intensity and focus with such precision and gorgeousness. Is this the 2016 plus more?

Decanter Dark and seductive nose, savoury spiced notes, bramble fruit and dried herbs. Juicy and supple, a generosity of bright blackcurrant and strawberry fruit, clean and pure with concentration and energy. Lean, straight and taught but there’s a lovely delicacy and detail to this. Feels well worked, a little serious right now, but well defined with concentrated fruit, mouthwatering acidity and some appealing mineral notes. 3.7pH. Ageing 14-16 months, 50% new barrels. Harvest 2 September - 28 September. 17% press wine.
