Tasting notes
Tasted blind. Light and lifted on the nose. Just very slightly sour but nicely transparent and fresh. Racy. Ready. I don’t apologise for rating this second wine above the grand vin on current showing. VGV (JR)

The second wine, the 2005 Segla, is everything it should be – soft, round and seductive, with easygoing tannin, a suave, savory, medium-bodied mouthfeel, and an attractive fragrance of red fruits, underbrush and spice. The velvety lushness makes for easy appreciation, and the wine is capable of lasting another 7-8 years.
Smooth and sophisticated. A bit bloody and dusty. Pants like a puppy rather than presenting itself for stroking. (JR)
About the producer
The Chanel group purchased Margaux Second Growth Ch. Rauzan-Ségla in 1994. Under the iconic fashion house’s ownership and – since 2014 – the guidance of winemaker Nicolas Audebert, the estate has seen significant investment and rapidly become one of Bordeaux’s most desirable.
