Description

The Ségla is the second wine from the excellent Château Rauzan-Ségla. This 2018 Margaux is showing beautiful aromas of black fruits and herbs, alongside spicy tobacco and an enticing, leafy note. The palate is dense and silky, displaying wonderful flavours of black cherry, mint and spice. Although this is currently a little tightly wound, an hour or two in a decanter will coax out excellent aromas and flavours. This is a wine to drink with lamb or roasted herby mushrooms.

Critics reviews

Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW 90-92/100
The 2018 Ségla is composed of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 44% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot. Cabernet Sauvignon was harvested from September 27 to October 11, Merlot from September 13-27 and Petit Verdot September 28-29. It has 14% alcohol, and aging is anticipated to be 18 months in barriques, 25% new. Deep garnet-purple colored, it opens with quite profound notes of baked blueberries, chocolate-covered cherries and mulberries with underlying cassis, violets, espresso and cracked pepper. The palate is medium to full-bodied with loads of rich fruit and lovely peppery sparks, framed by plush tannins and finishing with great length.Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate (April 2019)

Jeb Dunnuck 90/100
A terrific, charming second wine, the 2018 Château Rauzan-Segla Segla has plenty of darker currant and cherry fruits as well as leafy herbs and spice, medium-bodied richness, subtle minerality, and a great finish. Drink this high-quality, outstanding second wine over the coming 10-12 years.Drink 2021 - 2033jeb_dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com (November 2021)

This is really delicious already with plenty of dark berries, chocolate and hints of wet earth and fresh herbs. Full-bodied, dense and layered. Best second wine from Rauzan-Segla.james_suckling, jamessuckling_com (April 2019)

Powerful, with shavings of bitter dark chocolate running through it. This has depth and power and as it unrolls it shows grip and complexity. Plenty to recommend with this wine.Drink 2023 - 2036jane_anson_mw, Decanter.com (November 2020)

The 2018 Ségla is every bit as impressive as it was from barrel. Readers will find a second wine that shows all stature of the Grand Vin, but with the volume turned out just a bit. Rich, pliant and wonderfully inviting, the 2018 Ségla has it all. Dark cherry, plum, mocha, spice and licorice all build in the glass. As always, Ségla is offered only after having spent a few years in the cellar. It's a wine to keep an eye on.Drink 2023 - 2035antonio_galloni, Vinous.com.com (March 2021)
