Maturing Margaux commune red blend: second wine of Chanel-owned Chateau Rauzan-Segla quaintly called Segla (well you know where it comes from); a stern and leafy merlot mix which would pass for cabernet anyway; out of a 10/10 year, recently re-rated as superior for the decade of maturing Bordeaux; luscious but drying, minty but leaflike, low oak but cedary, 13%, AUD 150 for magnum; drink now, will never soften any more with the chewy tannins (result of declassification); #drinkfrance #drinkbordeaux #bordeaux #leftbank #médoc #margaux #rauzansegla #merlot #cabernetsauvignon #bordeauxblend #second #2005 #magnum — 9 years ago
Not impressed for $50. #rauzansegla being mediocre again.... — 8 years ago
Capping off a wine-filled weekend with an elegant wine of age shared with colleagues and friends. #RauzanSegla 1989. Classy and fresh at 26. It's sweet perfume seduces the palate and soothes the soul. Cheers! #Bordeaux #Margaux — 10 years ago

Blind tasting it seemed ripe and mature for #Margaux and that’s a good thing, it was delicious #rauzansegla — 6 years ago
