Segla 2016, produced by Château Rauzan-Ségla in Margaux, presents a blend primarily of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, alongside small quantities of Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. This wine underwent maturation in 20% new oak barrels for approximately 12 months. The nose reveals notes of black cherry and subtle herbal undertones, while the palate is medium-bodied with a well-defined structure. The tannins are supple yet present, contributing to its balance. The finish is notable for its length and a touch of spice.

The 2016 Ségla is drinking beautifully. Black cherries, cassis and violets on the nose immediately nail this as a Margaux, quite plush and seductive. The palate has wonderful balance and saturated tannins. It’s silky smooth with a sweet but poised finish that slips down the throat with ease. This is exactly what second labels should be for.
