Ségla 2020 is a mature-vintage Cabernet Sauvignon-based Bordeaux red wine from the Margaux appellation. Ségla is the second wine of the renowned Margaux Second Growth Château Razan-Ségla. This bottling from the exceptional 2010 vintage is a blend of 63% Cabernet Sauvignon and 37% Merlot. "Beautifully elegant fruit is present on the nose. Supple mid-palate and clear ageing ability as the tannins are still young. Acidity is well balanced, and there is real grip on the palate. Black fruits, liquorice and wet stone texture." Jane Anson, 2019

The 2010 Ségla was tasted under two different closures. The first under cork, offers blackberry, briary and touches of violet on the quintessential Margaux nose that gains intensity with aeration. Very impressive. The palate is medium-bodied with fine boned tannins, superb depth and body with an energetic, very focused finish that leaves a longer spicy residue. Lots of potential here. Under Screwcap it was also impressively pure and focused on the nose with red plum, blackberry, crushed violets and a hint of cassis that gains intensity with aeration. What really took me back was just how pixelated this Screwcap bottling showed and the persistence on the aftertaste. This was a quite brilliant showing for a Deuxième Vin and seems to confirm that alternatives to natural cork can age just as well, if not better.
